One of the players in my game group is nearly blind, and depends on the Magnifier app on his laptop to let him read rule books via PDF.
Obviously his is an exceptional case, but lately I've noticed that a lot of the rule books are available fro free download as scanned PDFs. Technically they're illegal, of course, under copyright law, but I can see them being very very convenient for someone with a tablet or laptop. (I think the tablet is a better fit at a game table, if only because they don't create a wall between the player and the game table.)
So far I've only obtained PDFs of books I legitimately own in hardcopy, but I know others who use them more extensively.
How do you feel on the subject?
