[QUOTE="dropbear8mybaby, post: 7710440, member: 6863518"] I'll be happy to be proven wrong. Despite my negativity, I would dearly love for this to be a great and successful product. I really loathe all the current options. But if this is true, then they are far better off charging a lower amount for more subscribers rather than a high amount that acts to turn people off the product entirely. Take the Netflix example. Every other competitor charged far more for their product because they were operating off an old paradigm of controlling access to limited markets. Netflix came along and charged a much lower rate, and now they're a $60 billion dollar, global megalith. I pay $11.99 per month for a huge array of on demand video and an increasing library of original content. I would not, however, pay $11.99 per month for a campaign management and character creation tool. That level of subscription cost simply isn't justifiable in this day and age. Honestly, I would start to hesitate if it was more than $2 per month, unless it was a seriously great product that I decided I simply must have, then I might be able to justify up to $5 p/m. But it would have to really blow me away for that and be D&D equivalent, in my mind, to getting Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, House of Cards, Orange is the New Black, etc. [/QUOTE]
