FAR FAR higher quality in the 4e days as far as rules stuff goes than it ever was in any previous time period. It is also FAR cheaper in real terms. Honestly, 95% of the Dragon stuff has proven to be just as usable and well thought out as the stuff in physical book form. Where it hasn't it has been hit with errata just like everything else. The nice part about it being there's no book you have to markup, just D/L a new copy of that issue and you have it all. MOST of that stuff doesn't even make it into the errata documents as they always provide a finalized version of each issue within a month or so.There's really nothing WotC can do or needs to do about some people's absolute hatred of digital media. You can keep buying lots of the physical stuff and that will encourage them to focus on it as a good revenue stream, or not. Happy customers makes a good business but a good business also goes where the market is. If it is better for most of us to have PDFs and whatnot then that's where it will go and nobody needs to get pissed off about it. You either make do with what you can get or find it somewhere else if WotC can't or won't supply it.Personally I never found Dragon/Dungeon to be the big draw of DDI anyway. There are certainly times when I have cribbed material from them and some of the articles have been quite interesting on things like GMing issues and world building, but the adventures are pretty forgettable. The class and race stuff is usually fine, but I rarely bother to do more than skim it. The stuff will show in Compendium/CB anyway and that's what I use. I think the stuff I've liked the most were articles on mythology and monsters, items, etc. That stuff I can usually at least mine for ideas.</blockquote>
