[QUOTE="Maggan, post: 3816950, member: 6616"] That could be it. My perspective is that WotC can charge what they like for what they offer. I've been subjected to far worse offers during my life, concerning sums that are far larger than 15 bucks, or whatever those previews cost. My ultimate superhero-power is that I get to decide if it's a good deal to me or not, and then I get to decide if I want to spend the money or not. And if people don't want to spend the money, just wait a couple of months and you'll get all the previews, reviews and what not for free when the books are released. And I have a hard time seeing that the information in the preview books will be a secret to those that don't buy the books until the end of time. About 10 minutes before they hit the counters someone will spill everything about the book. And it will be discussed to death on these forums, so I don't think there is any risk that anyonen really need to feel left out. The preview information will be available online to everyone, without any more "loss of personal income" than getting online. Sure it won't be packaged in a nice book, but then again it's not the book that's the thing for those who just want the information. So for me personally, I won't invest energy into being mad at WotC. I just don't see the point. /M [/QUOTE]
