Some sort of 'preview' OGC that only has meaning if you have to buy it somewhere else. There's a preview page at all the PDF sites out there, and I can preview most books at the store, so I don't need another preview page. A 3000 page document I have to download and sift through to find anything.3000 1 page documents that I have to download and sift through to find anything.Beliefs: It is the right of anyone to have this content. If I have to pay for it, so be it. But I'm not going to pay for previews or crippled content. I believe the original publisher should be respected, but should not have absolute control of what they want to post and what they want to keep hidden. I'm afraid that if you can choose what to post, you'll only post less innovative content and hide juicy bits.Publishers should come to some sort of license with the site to allow them to post the name of the product and even link to a purchase page on ENGS/RPGnow/DTRPG. That way publishers benefit if someone likes 1 feat from a book, they may go out and buy it. It won't happen 100%, but I bet it happens more than 0%.NON-beliefs: Everyone should get to download all the free content they want. I want a resource that helps me find stuff, I'm not in this like a pokemon card collector. I don't need to catch em all, but I do want them all there in case I do want them. We should destroy publisher business by posting the content immediately, therefore reducing possible sales. I will still buy stuff, and so will others. I just want a single place I can go to find stuff instead of searching my hard drive to remember what publisher or book a certain feat happens to be in. I don't think 4 years is appropriate, but 6 months seems fair to me.</blockquote>
