Articles the length of those in Dungeon and Dragon magazines are much better read on paper than at a desk on a computer.[/quote]
I disagree. I find that being able to scroll through or search an article online makes the article easier to read.

Talibus]This is the reason books are still sold in hard copy and the eBook idea failed.

While I cannot completely disagree with your point about eBooks, the recent proliferation of Blogs and Wikis suggests that online publishing is not as much of a failure as you might think wrote:

Talibus]What the D&D player really wants

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Stop right there.

Are you really prepared to speak on behalf of all D&D players everywhere? Have you done exhaustive interviews and polling and scientifically proven that all D&D players everywhere want the same thing?

I find that idea laughable, mostly because I know I disagree with you so you obviously don't speak for all D&D players everywhere.

I'm willing to let that statement slide under the heading of "unintentional hyperbole", but you should be careful of making such statements in the future wrote:

Talibus]Will Wizards at least include a full front/back cover page with their electronic only publications so that we can print and bind these materials by hand?

I doubt it.

I'm pretty sure Wizard's business plan doesn't include a "let them print their own" philosophy.

If they see a market for it, however, there may be printed collections of the online articles available for sale. Maybe.

Also, as just about anyone who has tried to print out a PDF of the PHB or other book will tell you, you end up spending more on ink than a published book would have co wrote:
