But WotC used to sell all their 3e stuff digitally before, so it would be easy to make it available again, and their 4e stuff should all be electronically created and easy to put up.They also used to sell prior edition content as well on DriveThruRPG, so I assume the rights issues to original authors or art has been worked out. I know that was an issue with older issues of Dragon, and that is why the Dragon Compendium electronic product was discontinued. But I'd be surprised if WotC didn't fully own their non-magazine stuff. Still you bring up a good point.As far as pirating goes, the diehard pirates will do that regardless. But I think most customers will pay if you offer them something of value for a reasonable price. I think Apple's $0.99 price for music on iTunes and good services like Pandora and Spotify have done far more to eliminate music piracy than any amount of RIAA lawsuits.</blockquote>
