Many DMs feel exactly the same way. Also, we already have enough fluff to last several lifetimes. So, why would we pay for their fluff?(By contrast, the crunch is something that's much harder to do well, because the game should hang together as a whole. And doing that is hard.)I wouldn't go that far, but I do agree that the current model where you can subscribe and get everything is too generous. Leave it a year or two, and they'll be utterly saturated with adventures, and have nothing left to offer us.I would argue that the e-magazines should be made available for a limited time only (perhaps 3 months), after which they're gone. Of course, if people download and keep them in the meantime that's their busines, but that doesn't mean WotC should support the "sub for one month, download everything" model.My wallet would be very happy with this paradigm. But then, my wallet is very happy with the current paradigm - I've bought almost no RPG books for more than a year now.</blockquote>
