It's odd how unanimous the poll has been. That's rather rare.

yah not much of a poll after all.

This sentence no verb.

Yet totally understandable.

EDIT: Nevermind. I don't want the FBI to come get me.

Where's the option for "download them, but I wasn't going to buy them in the first place"?

I picked #3, because I am going to buy the core books of 4e D&D, but that seems like a valid option that's missing. Almost all of my games are online, though, so that'd be enough to kick off a game, or at least work on a homebrew variant for my group, right away.

I'd call the FBI.

Arrr, no copyreich gestoppo would keep me from p'rusing da books a bit early.

I've already pre-ordered the core, but, ya, I would not say no to a PDF.

Threads like this actually do serve one useful purpose: you learn who the douchebags with no respect for the work of others are around here....

As cool as some people think file-sharing is, there is just no substitute for the actual hardcopy in my hands. The glossy sheen of the paper, the smell of the ink, the soft whisper of each page as I turn it...

...you just can't get that in a .PDF file, no matter how awesome you are at desktop publishing or how sweet your printer is. I'll settle for an ESD when shopping for out-of-print books, but only after Amazon and Ebay have failed me.

Oh, and in before the lock and all that.
