I can see where some might be unhappy, if they want to make the magazine into the print version. Yes it will be costly.
same was true on the opposite end for me. The time it took me to scan/ocr an article (let alone a whole magazine) the few times I tried wasn't worth it.
I do most of my game prep on the computer, and therefore having a digital copy that I can cut/paste is well worth that price to me. Having that information also seperated into a searchable list is an added bonus.
I will admit reading off a screen is harder then paper format, so I can see that if you're not like me, and you don't do a ot of computer prep work, you might not be happy with it.
I personally am happy with function over form.
In anycase, just like I didn't use EVERY article or idea in Dragons of the past, I doubt I will use all of them in he new ones. So I won't print all of them. (And will most likely only print what I need cut/pasted from them.)
And yet another word from our sponsors
