Maybe people don't like change? They've always used a DVD to install
software. "What's this USB/Live CD crap? GTFO!" Long-time Linux users
hate change. If the Live image is not downloaded as often then it shows
you there aren't many, new, users trying out Fedora.

Seeing as more and more for-profit companies[1] are moving to
online-only distribution of their software (and users are *embracing*
it), it is about time Fedora join them. Sure, we still need an image to
get a minimal system installed, but there is no need to put together a
4GB image that is obsolete as soon as it is spun.
