[QUOTE="CovertOps, post: 5204668, member: 65152"] Translation: You're not allowed to disagree with my opinion...I mean "facts". /sarcasm Again your opinion. I'm not aware of any GAME companies that have been saved by the government and I don't sense WotC/Hasbro going under any time soon. Other than that I'm not sure what your point here is. I have never disagreed with your premise (It would be nice if we could get a digital format of books from WotC without them being illegal). What I have disagreed with is the idea that WotC should provide a product [b]even if providing said product would cause the company to lose money[/b]. More opinion. And really this opinion forms the basis of all your other positions. Yes. They failed to find a way to [b]profit[/b] from a digital offering, so they stopped offering it. Irrelevant. So defending their IP is bad? You're assuming that a digital offering would be profitable. Summary: I can't speak for DS, but he can feel free to agree or disagree with what I'm about to say. The only useful thing you've said is that you disagree with their decision to not have a digital offering. You come here and make ridiculous claims based on your opinion and present them as fact, then, expect us to disprove said "facts". And when we put your feet to the fire you rephrase your "facts". Until and unless you can [b]prove[/b] that WotC stopped selling PDFs because of a "kneejerk reaction" you have no case. And just so I'm clear...the only way you can prove said claim is if a WotC official comes out with a statement saying so. @DS: When I saw this I immediately thought of [url=http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=underwear%20gnome%20economics]this[/url], but then again I expect that's why you posted it that way. Step 1: Make PDFs. Step 2: ?????? Step 3: PROFIT! [/QUOTE]
