![]() Their only saving grace is the feature where the GM with the master subscription can share content with their players. But that still requires a big purchase on the GM's part. ![]() This way you can use it offline with out too much worry of mass duplication. So as a compromise why not have a offline version of DNDB that you can download to x number of laptops/mobile devices with all you source material you have purchased. ![]() Lastly i can somewhat understand them not wanting to allow PDF download. Actually they would probably make more money as there would be 5 times more current customers purchasing the e sources. This way you're still making money and appealing to current customers. How about if i can show proof of purchase why not give me a reduced cost. If i purchased the hard copy of the book and can show proof, why are you going to make me pay full price again. Ok so if you can get past their math problems, then you have to deal with them slamming the door on current customers. So already i don't agree with any of their pricing. If you add up all the e source books full prices you get $299.87, %15 off would come out to $254.89 not $279.99. Ok so biggest thing that jumps out to me is that Wizards doesn't know basic math. What happens if someone has to leave for non-gaming related reasons? What if there are issues that would result in a player quitting or getting kicked out? What if the DM can't be the DM anymore for whatever reason? Who has control of the account? Who makes the subscription payments? It can get ugly fast. Unless you're an already established group with confidence you'll remain such, it's too risky to ask this of players just forming a new group or have been in one for a couple of months when this website appears. We sort of have a reunion with my recently joining a group that has two other players from that group. I have been fortunate to be in one group that lasted 12 years, but that was a glorious exception. (No snark intended.) By reality I mean that life happens and gaming groups don't last forever. Yuck.Sounds fair, but I would be reluctant due to reality. It's somewhat mitigated if your table of 5 people total says, "Ok, each of us will pitch in _ and we'll all use the account", but.
