I just went and checked by RPGNow history:

21 PDF products that I actually shelled out money for
74 PDF products total. I do like those freebies. :)

Plus I've bought a few from ENWorld and a couple from DriveThruRPG. So assuming you're only talking about actual purchases it looks like I should have answered either 20 or 30 rather than 15. Still nothing compared to some of you guys. How do you find time to read it all? :)

Probably over a hundred. Maybe less that were not free or review copies. But probably more than 100.

I bought four this December (complete guide to liches, wererats, fey, and aerial adventure guide), five in November (Wildscape, path of faith, giant lore, spells and spellcraft, school of illusion), five in October (elemental lore, twisted lore, monster's handbook, planes and portals, cityworks), I'd have to look up for months before that.

I spend my whole monthly RPG budget on pdfs now.
 


Zero. I tried it out with the Exalted PDF when it was free from one of the DRM-enabled companies.

I find PDFs to be nearly unreadable for something the size of Exalted. Great for printing... but PDF is a horrible format for reading large documents on a screen, IMO.

Then that machine had issues, and I had to reinstall the OS. I couldn't get that PDF back without paying for it... so the whole thing with DRM killed whatever lingering appeal of PDF books.
 



Ye gads... I am fast approaching 1500 (though at least a couple hundred are TSR's).

Hi, my name is The Sigil, and I'm a PDF junkie...

There should have been a zero option - so far I've had plenty of pdfs for free, but not paid for many. There are advantages to writing reviews and I've found that being able to get at least some of what you want as pdfs for free is a big part of it.
 

Two. Year of the Zombie (D20M) and Hyperconcioussness (before I bought a real copy).

I'm not interested in PDF's. If the books good I want it on paper and sitting on my shelf.
