[QUOTE="MoogleEmpMog, post: 3468916, member: 22882"] My guess is that those people are looking at it as paying for a) Dungeon, b) Dragon, c) Virtual Tabletop, d) Character Generator, e) existing Wizards web content such as web enhancements (if they went to the pay side) and f) probably searchable everything. Say 2.5 magazines worth of content for the price of 1.5. Also, for some of us (raises hand) digital/.pdf format is much, much more convenient for actual use at the gaming table. 1. What do you mean by site security? That they won't lose your credit card number/paypal account to identity thieves? If so, yeah, that's definitely a bare minimum requirement. Shouldn't be too hard to meet; hundreds of sites have reliable security for subscription services. 2. Agreed, although 24/7/365 is, generally speaking, a pipe dream. Not being down more than once in six months and not for more than six hours - that's very achievable. 3. Now this would be AWESOME. I don't have an iPod or palm, but if they introduced this feature, I would seriously look into picking one up on the cheap. 4. No worries on this count. :) Actually, I'm looking forward to seeing how Wizards handles the submission process; Matt Sernett was a [I]hyper[/I]-efficient editor when he was at Dragon, and I'm hoping he'll get tapped for this role for DragOnline. They'll be inheriting Paizo's slush pile, for a start. Also, I'm going to keep calling Wizards online initiative 'DragOnline' until proven wrong. ;) [/QUOTE]
