"you will be able to buy online versions of your actual D&D books that update and change whenever the rules change"

This is cool if it really works that way. I wonder if it's just the nominal fee content though that will update the printed material.

A book that is always current would be neat. Here's hoping.

The only issue I see with it is being able to keep it if I stop subscribing. That would not be cool.

At last, Wizards can finally destroy my productivity by letting me access all their products at work! (The 3rd party stuff I mostly already have duplicated as PDFs on a thumb drive.)

It does sound cool, if the price is right (I mean, in theory I've already paid for a paper version; now I have to buy it again?).

I'd also hope for something similar to the current Core Rules updates, where changes are highlighted (or better yet, have a page with links to changes at the top of each update). It doesn't do me much good to have the latest change to Spell_0295 if I don't know that there has been a change.
