[QUOTE="ShinHakkaider, post: 5510426, member: 9213"] Just for a frame of reference my IT dept has pretty much all of the software that the company uses ripped to either .iso or .DMG or some other format on one of our servers somewhere. When we order new software from adobe we dont get discs anymore, we go to thier licensing site and download the software. The same with Microsoft for some or most of their products. The Mac App store, wherein the physical Apple store are starting to slowly but surely move their physical software boxes to make room for other product and pointing people to the app store for downloads. My own personal preference is for a .PDF over a physical copy ESPECIALLY for a RPG. I'm going to be running a game, not reading a game to people. The Game book is a reference book and PDF readers, a word processor are more important in helping me run my games than an actual physical book right now. My point is if I gave you money for a download code and downloaded the pdf right onto my iPad or MacBook Pro I'm totally fine with that. [/QUOTE]
