[QUOTE="Raevynn, post: 4263587, member: 1672"] ok. so here is my take on the pdfs/ebook version/paper/both/etc.... I love PDFs. have a ton of them on my laptop.... but I also travel. A LOT... so for me when I was playing 3.5e/RPGA I scanned in ALL of my books. this way I could travel to a location... post to see if a game was being played.. join in.. I did not have to lug 50lbs of paper to play. Plus I have my character and all of its ARs scanned as well. I also ride a motorcycle making taking more than my laptop and a book VERY impractical. Now... I would even pay full price for a NON-DRM version of the book even if pirated copies are available. B/c I am doing that anyway by slicing up a PHB for scanning and having one in book form. Now one thing NO ONE MENTIONED is aren't pdf/ebooks just a tad bit more eco-friendly too? perhaps there are a few of us who care about that as well... nice little "check us out we are green" press release for WoTC.. Anyway.. I love the kendel... but I want full color with graphics and tables of pdfs for what ever eBook Reader is out there... I am praying/sacrificing... for one... but noting as of yet... so to answer the PDF vs paper... I love paper.. but hate that I have to to carry a milkcrate of books to a game just to play.. I want the books for my home and the pdfs for the game/portability... [/QUOTE]
