what is the difference between magic and magick?

I've been a big fan of RPG games since I was a kid, and, recently, I've noticed that many games use the spelling "magick" in place of the spelling "magic." Is this a P.C. thing or is it merely a natural change over time?

    Originally spelt 'magick' on the end by Crowley to differentiate it from stage 'magic', the art of magick is difficult to define, yet can best be described as the ability to manipulate what is in the material world by will. Some people use tools and others visualisation, some practice solitary and others in covens. Magick is universal.

    The spelling is different, obviously!
