Same price as real boosters, same contents... except they're virtual cards. You can use the cards to play games online, you can trade with them, sell them, etc.If you get a complete set of virtual cards (that is, one of each card from a particular set), you can redeem them for a real set of cards - you lose access to the virtual cards, and get sent actual physical cards. I've friends that have done this. It is really, really cool.For me, Magic Online would be much, much better than trying to find real games of Magic. You can always find games, there are always tournaments starting up. Very nice indeed.If the DI has virtual minis that use the same scheme, it may be successful. I'm somewhat suspicious because the DDM game is much weaker than the Magic game in terms of sales - most of the DDM sales are for RPG purposes, and players who play both in real life and online would be more common than just players who play online.Cheers!</blockquote>
