Holy crap. That's so much stuff.

Anyone download one and see if the quality's any good?

Edit: Oh. Semi-readable scans. Welp, better than nothing.

B1 is temporarily free. Same font as the original product which is not totally great for reading electronically. However the text is searchable and you can copy/paste it.

Quality is fair to good. The text is OCRed and searchable and able to be copied and pasted, but occasionally looks ragged around the edges.

They are bookmarked, which is fantastic!

86 products ranging from Basic D&D to 4e! Any news whether the quality of other old products is the same as that of B1?

Since they don’t have the core rulebooks up, I wonder if they are waiting for the re-publish to sell original digital copies of the new books?

Looks like it. I'm able to copy & paste text from Fiend Folio.

Generally fantastic scans, full OCR. Watermarked, not copy protected. And a lot more to come.
