WOTC can clean up its API and DDI terms. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> It would never get to the fine print if WOTC were to put up a clear usage policy. Masterplan devs are clearly fans of the game and do not want to hurt it.I would love to talk about point 4, actually. I am curious to see how you would link Masterplan to the ex-DDI users transmitting the information under copyright. In all of this, I don't see where people are bridging the gap between Masterplan and the torrent sharing people on a legal level. As far as I know, Masterplan goes out of its way to encourage DDI subs with its onsite posts. So, the target audience is clearly people with active subs. Agreed, it is why I always work with people and all parties in my entertainment media disputes over content. You can usually come out with a win-win arrangement. As the one awful movie suggests... "Show me the money!" People want to be paid in the business world. Cease and Desist letters are sooooo early 90s.Good coppers. Yes, it is a moot point and I fully agree on the poison well bit. Personally, I go under a LLC which allows me to defend against these type of things. Masterplan...not so lucky, I think. *shrug* I just want people to know that groups like FAP, the ACLU, and your local bar association in the US help fight these type of laws in the US. Software companies have options -whatever size. And, you can afford it if you run with insurance. EDIT: It is worth noting that I only support Masterplan as an innocent party. The people sharing the files are breaking copyright. Adds his own IAMNAL disclaimer...</blockquote>
