Caveat emptor and all that.To each their own. I'm sorry their current business methods aren't to your liking. On the flip side, I'm buying more WotC products since 3.x. Stuck with Pathfinder rather than 4e, and even early 5e just got the core books and Out of the Abyss cuz it sounded cool and might have stuff to re-use but still mostly played PF. However, with the greater options to purchase products, I've fully bought into DDB with their Legendary Bundle so that I can help my son's group have access to any of the content they want (and I have easier access to everything than my physical copies), and with some former co-workers who moved away, we are starting a Roll20 VTT game and I will likely buy one of the adventures there as well because of the massive time saving and utility of being able to play it online with them with less prep time for me. For me, it's not "cynical exploitation", it's giving me more useful tools.So WotC's business methods have moved me from buying zero WotC products since... I dunno, Book of 9 Swords or maybe Spell Compendium to now buying the core rulebooks twice, all of the adventures and other sourcebooks, and quite likely buying an adventure a second time (or third time if Roll20 ever releases OotA!). So I'm a very happy customer with the direction they are going in. With Xanathar's I'm debating whether to get it on DDB only, or since it's a Player-focused sourcebook and my wife like physical books for character building but I prefer DDB, possibly getting it twice.Some business methods will work for some customers and not for others. I'm happy it's aligning well with my needs and interests. I'm sorry it doesn't work for you. But it's also bonus if they are focusing more on long-term viability as they appear to be rather than getting as much product out there every month to spike short term revenue like in 3.x days, that's even better.</blockquote>
