[QUOTE="Grabuto138, post: 5372952, member: 61053"] I honestly sympathize because what you experienced was a product that could be updated or not at your pleasure and had utility regardless of whether or not you were subscriber. Unlike a video game, however, I would argue that this is not what you actually bought, regardless of how you experienced it. I think WOTC was pretty upfront about that fact that what they were marketing was a subscription service rather than a tangible product. They were and are selling a product called the Dungeons and Dragons Insider, and when you actually put in your credit card info it was pretty clear you were paying for a subscription not a software application. I do not fault anyone for doing the "1 month every 6 month" subscription thing. EULA aside I do not fault people for sharing subscriptions (though if a group shares one subscription for six people I think maybe they should consider digging through the couch cushions and comeup with, say, $2/month per person. Individual consciouses may vary, though.) But rather than all this rage (not pointing at anyone is particular, honestly.) I think a more healthy attitude is, "it was a good ride while it lasted."
