Hi Mark
I would agree with you and many years ago, I'd originally bought many of the RMFRP books in PDF format (mainly due to the UK shipping rates of the books) but annoyingly, I've been suffering heavily with Migraines and cluster headaches quite badly in recent years and I've found the printed page easier on my eyes (and hence on my head too).
Now that I think I've grasped many of the rules for RMFRP, printing a few pages here and there for clarification/reference wouldn't be a problem but I did start out trying to print the entire PDFs so I could read them easier. ...and I got it wrong - I printed all the odd pages and then even pages so I could back them up and through not concentrating on it, I've managed to get the right hand pages on the left and vice versa. I only noticed AFTER I'd printed out the FRP, Character Law and Gamesmaster Law.
Trying to staple that many pages was a big problem too.
I find it easier to flick through a book to get to the place I was (by recognising the pages as it's flicking) as opposed to a PDF. I remember a time where there was a call for a 'paper-less office' and I embraced it whole heartedly ...until my head rebelled.
I'm glad the books are available in PDF format (particularly for shipping rates) and I love the fact you can buy the PDFs bundle along with the physical book although I think 'half price' is still a little much. It'd be great if you got the PDFs free with the relevant bundles.
Although realistically, I'd certainly be prepared to pay 25% without hesitation for the PDFs when buying the book bundles.
Otherwise, I'd prefer the option of buying the PDFs at a later date (but at the discounted bundle price) if I'd purchased the book bundle previously, as I'd want to evaluate the printed version first.
But first, RMFRP needs to be collected before RMC kills it totally
