Let's not forget cost. Diamond Mind is considerably more expensive than OOTP and the reason for that is it's specialization and attention to detail. OOTP is a reasonably priced baseball simulation that is designed for a broader and therefore more generalized segment of the market. DMB caters to a much narrower and selective niche of the overall baseball sim market and is correspondingly more expensive to own. Now it does things in terms of history that OOTP can't and likely never will but then again they are different products for different slices of the market.
