Even though lots of users were getting accelerators, RAM expansions, and CD/hard drives in the mid 90s, I think most publishers still thought of the Amiga as a floppy-only, 1MB, OS1.3 A500. There was a chicken and egg problem: publisher assumes Amiga users don't have capable hardware, Amiga users don't upgrade because there's no software.

Even the UK magazines continued to offer cover disks on floppies until very late, whereas they should have said "We're doing only cover CDs from now on. Get a CD drive."

And then of course there's the piracy issue...
