[QUOTE="dirtypool, post: 8484703, member: 7033897"] Yes and that doesn’t in fact relate to my statement that I find it unlikely that Foundry would turn off access to content you paid for quite that easily. It’s not a subscription, you don’t repurchase the content each month. Stop conflating subscriptions and digital purchases Sure it’s a possibility, I’ll stipulate. Will you acknowledge it is not the ONLY possibility Unprecedented growth =/= dissolution of print media content. You’re skipping form A straight to A “foot in that door” is not an abandonment of the traditional content pipeline Again, growth in online play is not a decrease in physical media objects. I have no clue why that concept is not landing with you, because I’ve said it a lot No I’m playing with friends online without using digital tools. Don’t speak to the outcome of contracts you’ve not read, that’s entirely speculative Yes you can also use Roll20 without purchasing their digital files and relying on physical books. Stop presenting these things as only working the way that supports your argument when it in fact works multiple ways Yeah, but that was your choice to platform shift. How hard it is to understand the you are at fault for that problem and not the games publisher. But you said 10 years before, funny how the duration got significantly longer. In the role you describe you clearly understand the concept of a standard pdf file that you can do with as you will and a proprietary file format that is behind a login. How many TTRPG publishers provide the former and how many the latter? The answer is almost all the latter and very few the former. The sky is not falling [/QUOTE]
