I love these bundles from Paizo. They're a great deal for me, and help a great cause. So what if this is the 3rd or 5th time I bought the core rulebook? I still have yet to pay for a fraction of the original cost. And I have been able to contribute for a worthwhile cause.

Plus, I can now turn around and get these items for Fantasy Grounds at a great discount. The adventure paths and the flip-mats are the big draw for me. I can get them for $7 per adventure, and $4-5 for single map sets. If I bought them wholesale from Fantasy Grounds, they would cost 3-4 times as much, but I would also get the pdf for free.

You can see why these bundles are a big deal to me. I can only imagine there may be similar advantages for other digital platforms but I have not checked.
