[QUOTE="tadk, post: 4197524, member: 32497"] [b]PDFs and IP[/b] Hi Whisperfoot Ok so you are asserting that in a few years or so I won't be able to buy either in a brick and mortar store, large chain bookstore, or through someone like IPR ANY hardcopy game books? I do disagree with that, which is a separate assertation and discussion. Personally, I do not look to buy a PDF over a Hardcopy book. I personally will spend $20 for a softcover over $9.95 for a PDF. Just a personal preference, like I will spend money for a better cup of coffee than I can make at a "Coffee Shop" over .99 cents for schlock at a Convenience Store. I chose where I indulge for my preferences. As far as my own creativity, anything I write that is gaming related is all for free. I turn them into PDFs because it is easy for others to get a hold of, not everyone likes Word Documents, the PDFs are physically smaller in size (easier to email), and to save for myself on my own flashdrive. But otherwise this is my hobby. I had heard of that use a POD service for PDFs you buy. Can you give me more details, how, where, etc. That would be nice information for me to have for personal use potentially someday if you are correct. Thanks Tad [/QUOTE]
