[QUOTE="drjones, post: 6369065, member: 62944"] The interview on the front page directly addresses this. Sounds like they don't think just putting out a PDF of the book would be desirable and DS [I]and the free basic which you already have (For Free)[/I] is the way people can access that on devices. This seems quite fine with me. In fact I could see a lot of my players only wanting subsets of the PHB that they will use. If they could get the races and classes section digitally formatted without the rest for a few bucks that would be better than paying full price for the whole book. I think the fretting about proprietary formats is seriously overwrought. If I want to play 5e after the apocalypse when the internet died and Apple went bankrupt and the DS servers burst into flames I'll just use the paper book. If a digital tool not being available in a decade is the worst problem we will face then life is very good indeed. [/QUOTE]
