[QUOTE="TheYeti1775, post: 5648281, member: 20914"] You might have a point, if the stream of income dwindled down to a trickle where it wasn't supporting the accounting cost alone, than I would understand why they cut sales. The Piracy excuse never really flew with me anyways. If anything I would wager Piracy increased after the pulling of the sales. I do hope the WotC folks are looking on this thread at least. We are telling them how to get $$ out of our wallets into their accounts and what we won't even bat an eyelash to say no to, I hope they take it to heart. Us grognards are just old fuddy duddies that are set in our ways. <shakes cane> I would love to be a customer, just provide something I want to purchase. Personally I'm not into the subscribing for a game method. Yes I have XBOX Live, I pay $100/yr for a family account so I can have multiples for my son and I plus two guest ones for his friends when they are over. If you put it behind DDI Subscription to purchase the PDF's or have a Print on Demand option. I could see myself subscribing, I would treat it much like my Costco membership. But if you put it behind the DDI for limited online viewing only. Well, than I won't even bother. Really I bet I'm like many in a prime customer buying power range for WotC to consider. mid-thirties with a son who is right at the starting age i was when I started playing, with lots of disposable income. Right now in my Amazon Cart I have $200 of gaming stuff in it. The only reason I haven't clicked the order button yet is the card I use for Amazon is at home and I'm at work. Much of it is discontinued TSR/WotC stuff I found from 3rd Party sellers. [/QUOTE]
