>The author makes the assumption that people use Comixology for discovery of new titles, but the vast majority do not. There are many blogs and magazines for that type of discovery. I don't use any blogs or magazines for "that type of discovery". And not many people do, because of lack of time, except if they are scene-obsessed teenagers. I do however check new titles and stuff in Comixology, and ocassionaly buy some I haven't read.

Not many people like you do, but reading a blog or magazine is not regulated to scene-obsessed teenagers. Moreover these so called scene obsessed readers contribute to the majority of sales. Comic book fans represent the majority that count in this case not the occasional reader with not time for your so called comic book scene. To illustrate outsiders may think HN readers are tech obsessed minority, when compared to general population they are, but the traffic HN readers can provide is significant to a tech based startup.
