I don't buy PDFs, so I'm right there with you.
I can understand why some people would be upset, however.

This treads dangerously on "me too" ground, but I have to agree, it doesn't really bother me one way or the other, especially as I think WotC were very late to the PDF game anyway. I think Wizards might want to learn a lesson or two about communication, but that's not a reason to get all hot under the collar.
Shelves groaning under the weight of hardcover goodness... that is what I crave.

I lost access to 1 pdf. I never even downloaded it. The only reason I got it, the Book of Challenges I think, is because it was a freebie for some sort of event/holiday/giveaway a year or 2 ago.
So it doesn't get my dander up, but I can see how people who've counted on their purchases to be available later, like when the buy a new computer, to be miffed.

Since I prefer to have a physical product it doesn't bother me in that way.
However it is a breach of *trust* if not legality. News like this would make me do things such as cancel my purchase of the PHB 2. It was only because it was cheap (from Amazon) that I didn't.
If things go on like this I'll simply change to Exalted. It seems like a superior game, I would have changed already but it's far easier to find DnD players.

It doesn't bother me on a practical level, since WotC rejected me as a customer a while back (and because I'm not fond of PDF format).
But it interests me.

Hey guys I think people having honest or legitimate complaints with a company I like don't matter too.

The PDFs? no, I personally don't care whether or not there are PDFs available. Its the ramifications that I worry about.
I was about to hop aboard the 3PP train... but if the majority of customers no longer support D&D, what will it do to the games/material/suppliments made for D&D?

Well I don't care much either. I understand why it concerns some people ofc and recognize that concern as legitimate, though I'd rather the community was obsessing over hybrid classes or incomming AP to be honest I certainly don't get the 20+ page threads every time WotC does a new PR stumble, while the thread about the amazing success of the PHB2 got locked way earlier. There is a lot of bile being flung and if I wanted that I'd go visit WoW class forums. I can find a dozen people disclaiming this is the final straw and they are quiting there as well. I don't know if 4E has turned into WoW but the community certainly is turning into that community.
