[QUOTE="Mr. Beef, post: 3250000, member: 44124"] I would not mind PDF's of stuff that is out of print, like the Star Wars D6 RPG by WEG or White Wolf's WoD books for Hunter:The Reckoning. Those are two systems that I would gladly pay for PDF's. Or some of our FLGS decide to charge a horrendious mark up on things that that are not mini's or CCG's. One of the stores I used to go to was selling Worlds Lagest Dungeon (WLD), just the book, for $100 and then another $50 for the maps. I would have gotten WLD at Amazon.com with everything for for about 35% off retail or more now, but I have no intrest in WLD. I know it's the information age, but it's also the electricity age. Last year in October the house I am living in lost power due to a thunderstorm knocking over a tree and taking the power line off the back of the house. It took the better part of three days to get power back and during that time I was thankful for having some of my RPG's in regular book form so I could go through them to entertain me. Yes, cheap storage is a factor, but there are those of us, like myself, that do not have a laptop to take with them when they play games. I have a great desktop and DSL, but I don't want to lug around 50+ pounds of Monitor and another 30 of case into where we are playing and inconvience everyone with placement of wires and cables. Some of the best games I've been in have been played with dice, pencil, DM Screen for the DM, a character sheet for the PC's, and all the notes you need to run the adventure. Not a laptop in site. Just my 1/4 pound. Mr. Beef [/QUOTE]
