[QUOTE="Brown Jenkin, post: 988650, member: 2572"] I fully understand this quote since I feel the same way. The reason I purchase Dragon, Dungeon and every other RPG product from my FLGS instead of subscribing or getting it online is that I want my FLGS to prosper a stay in business. Yes I pay more, but it is worth it to have a place to go and talk about the products as well as brouse through them liesurely before buying them. It also allows me a chance to have a place to buy used materials for all sorts of games. Do I risk losing Dungeon by not subscribing, possibly but I would rather lose Dungeon than everythig else if my local store has to close instead. Is Dungeon going to fold because I buy it from the newsstand instead of subscribing, probably not. Paizo went to great lengths to say say that Dungeon is doing well and is not about to fold. Johnny's comment that it might was him lashing out in anger not that it was a real possibility. Now I agree with KenM that I am upset that they have subscriber only content. I can understand wanting to reward subscribers, but they are already recieving the magazine at a substantial discount. While they plan on offering it online for an extra charge I am not particularly happy with this solution. Not everyone has a high speed connection, and a color printer. I would also rather have my content included with the magazine itself rather than some looseleaf printout. Wouldn't it be easier as well to only print one version of the magazine? Its not like the content doesn't already exist and is being printed so cost should realy be minimal and while newsstand purchasers may be a minority of readers is it really a good idea to alienate them. Let the subscribers be rewarded with thier price breaks that we readily accept. [/QUOTE]
