[QUOTE="sjmiller, post: 3574436, member: 17262"] Mike, thank you for responding to the deluge of questions that people have. I think I can explain why people keep bringing up the topic of exclusion. Dragon and Dungeon magazines were a support product that everyone could get. You plop down some cash and you can take it home (or have it delivered!). If you had online access or not, it didn't matter. That support is going away. What replaces this? Why, it's product support that only some people can get. You have to be at a computer (most likely with a fast connection) and you have to sit there and read it. Or you have to print it out, which is an additional cost to what you already "purchased." People who preferred the offline, take anywhere, type of support want to know what they are getting to replace the support that is going away. You and Scott have both said, in so many words, that there's still going to be books. The books were there before the demise of the magazines, so it's not like you are adding anything. What people like me want to know is, what are you going to offer those of us who do not want to use the "oh-so-cool" Digital Initiatve? What am I going to get to replace the magazine I could read while lounging in my hammock? [/QUOTE]
