[QUOTE="funkytable, post: 4756119, member: 83257"] I've posted this elsewhere, but they were dying threads. So I'll post these comments here to get more attention. To WotC: I am not someone who's played RPGs for years on end, I've been a customer since January. Not joking, I'm that new. I have no loyalty to DND that allows me to turn a blind eye to business decisions from WotC. I have made every purchase from WotC through PDF's. I have no interest in the DND insider or the Hardcover books. [COLOR=white][FONT=Verdana]Therefore, I am no longer a customer of WotC.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=white][FONT=Verdana]I don't understand how losing one of your newest customers who was having a blast with your products is good business sense. I'm so ticked I might leave my gaming group. What's the point if in 3 months they will have a ton of materials I don't have? Why didn't you at least continue business as usual until an alternative ebook program was available?[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=white][FONT=Verdana]I will not be your customer until you offer digital copies of what you offer in books on a pay-per-book basis. I will never subscribe to a monthly subscription that will disappear when I have finished, and I will never buy books to take up space in my house.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=white][FONT=Verdana]Let me know when you offer digital books again. Until then, you've lost my dollars.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=white][FONT=Verdana]Not a threat, a fact.[/FONT][/COLOR] To be concise, here's why: 1. I PBP only. Meeting up with a gaming group for 4 hours does not interest me, mostly because I'm a family man. 15-30 minutes of fun a day is wonderful though. Therefore, I have no interest in having a stack of books at my desk when I could have all appropriate files on my computer. 2. My wife and I do not like clutter. DND books are certainly clutter. We are very careful about the books we purchase because it's gotten to be too many latley. 3. I don't like subscription based services. DNDinsider will go away if I stop paying the money. I'd rather spend my money on ebooks I can keep forever. Again, I do enjoy RPG gaming. I don't want to leave DND, but I am left without choice if you don't sell the product that suits my style. It will either be switch RPG system/publisher or leave RPG gaming when PHB3 comes out. Please reconsider your decision. [/QUOTE]
