D&D 5E So, I kind of want to stay with 2014 rules. What are my longterm options?

Obviously no new books will be printed … So what are my options longterm?

I have DM’d 3.5e since 2003. What I do:

• I have a half dozen or more PHB’s. I sometimes give them to players, or buy them a used one.
• I have unopened backup DMG and MM from when they were re-released. No need for them yet.
• You can get physical copies from many places. I favor Noble Knight.
• You cane get PDF versions from DriveThruRPG. Get them now before WotC might replace them

Unfortunately, the 2014 5e core rules are not available in PDF, only through D&D Beyond and VTTs. Maybe that'll change once the 2024 core rules are all out (though TBH I doubt it).

I just assumed. Oh well, all the editions are available, so maybe.
