There have been repeated calls on their site for a PDF subscription model, but they've explained repeatedly that allowing such would cause their income to drop too low for the company to keep afloat. Apparently, a significant portion of their actual profit comes from the FLGS sales.Their stand-alone adventures line still continues, too; they've got a new one coming out next month. And, apparently, they're still not a big money-maker; the APs are apparently where the actual money is.Except they don't. Try searching the SRD for the rules from the Technology Guide. You can find the info on websites like Scrolls of Nethys, but those websites are not run by Paizo.The only things in the SRD are from the core rules line; the vast majority of their publications will never make it in there.Notice how both of the ones you mentioned are also two of the latest ones out? Mummy's Mask can also be difficult to run without People of the Sands. And the Giant Hunter's Handbook to go along with the Giantslayer AP is already out. It's the exact same problem with having to tie products together to sell them that I was talking about.</blockquote>
