[QUOTE="Zil, post: 4576919, member: 20004"] You could also have selected the I don't buy 4E from Internet sources since that would also technically be correct. However, it would probably skew the intent of the poll. I also picked other because I'm in a similar boat. Since the core books, I haven't purchased a single 4E product, via the Internet or otherwise. However, if you look at where I currently purchase all RPG material, it has shifted over the last year to being 90% on-line. This is a big change from the 3.5/3E days when I easily purchased 85% to 90% of my 3.x material from the local FLGS. In my case, the main reason for the shift is because the two FLGS I used to buy from (and buy a lot from) went under. The only remaining FLGS specializes in board games and hardly carries any D&D - certainly nothing new or that I don't already have. The other factor in my case is that although I no longer buy the current official version of D&D, I do still probably spend about as much as I ever did in the past on RPG materials but now that has mostly shifted to the various Paizo subscriptions. One big drop in my spending has been miniatures. I've sunk many thousands into my D&D mini collection but at some point I decided that (a) the quality seemed to be going downhill, (b) I was tired of getting hundreds of minis I didn't really want and (c) I wasn't at all interested in the newer 4E minis and 4E stat cards. But I digress. [/QUOTE]
