[QUOTE="Dormain1, post: 4243554, member: 61912"] Our group owns one or two copies of most books, one copy if we don't really like it two or more if it is popular. we dont buy PDF due to overpricing PDF's should not cost as much as hardcover versions for the simple fact there is zero production cost in making them, books are now done in a digital format and are easily converted to PDF. One person can scan a book in 3 hrs, why would they waste their money buying a full priced PDF I would be willing to pay 1/2 price or upto $15 PDF do not replace hardcover books they are a tool and aid, they are also effective marketing tools to help sell quality hardcover books could you imagin the sales WotC would have made if they had the PDF of the 4E PHB available on the 6th, full price or even marked up 10% with zero production cost $$$ Someone will realise one day and kick themselves for not doing it sooner [/QUOTE]
