[QUOTE="Nyaricus, post: 3375816, member: 35678"] I respectfully disagree. What they are doing is create a one-stop book (or a few different books) which have a themeatic similarity; ie spells or magic items. And it's hardly new. AD&D had it's own compilations, so this has been going on since the beginning. Heck, even taking a look at 3.0, and there were about 3 or 4 versions of the Thri-Kreen floating around, and now with 3.5 there's likely a couple more. So no, they are not selling errata. What they ARE doing is creating a book which they snag the 'creme de la creme' (or however you say that in Engrish) of all of their other books, update all of that info (and of course there are going to be mistakes - they're just human) for us in the hope that it's more balanced, and sell it. We get nifty compendiums, they get our cash. It's pretty simple, and it allows them as a buisness to keep going, which is good to - WotC has after all single-handedly revived the D&D line, so you would be seeing any of this without them anyways. So, I disagree with your assumptions that WotC is now selling us errata, and in most cases you can play without errata with few problems anyway. cheers, --N [/QUOTE]
