It's possible that DDI turned some people off for one reason or another. But I also think some folk just don't like subscription models as a matter of principal. Much the way some feel that after buying the print book that having to pay for the electronic version is unfair (being 'made' too pay for the same content twice). I think the basic idea is that if you buy something that you shouldn't have to buy it again. So if someone buys your Forge module they feel shouldn't have to pay again to keep it.I don't really agree of course, depending on the product. It's just the difference between an access model and an ownership model, and you have to decide whether it's worth it to you or not. Nothing worth getting upset over. It's up to the company to convince you that paying periodically for access is worth your while. Was totally worth it for me with DDI, but YMMV. And of course the many hiccups and crashes on the way to where DDI finally ended up certainly didn't help.Shrug. Anyway, there you have my baseless speculation. For whatever that's worth. Time for me to go to bed. And once again, I'm hopeful for your vision and I really am rooting for your success.AD</blockquote>
