Yes, that's very true. I recall hearing that the founders were pretty much guaranteed 25% of the total market no matter what (however I have no reference to that.. mere hearsay).
Whilst it has been proclaimed "dead" many times, I am of the opinion that as long as people keep exchanging it it remains alive. The more important issue to me is that due to aforementioned intrinsic design flaws it can never replace real currency.
At least Magic The Gathering cards have marginal utility.
