yup, I think OBS see that could start to cause problems. What's even crazier that who would want to pay $30 for printed stuff if a PDF is $1.99? I'd hate for this to be the start of a decline for the printed side of the business too.( Although hardcover RPGs have got super expensive since I was a boy and everything was fields )

The whole "app pricing" thing is just a way to increase visibility. The companies re following the cell phone way of business. When Icons was released it was priced ten times higher with a print add on for slightly more. Now they can sell it for 2 bucks because they have already made their money on it. Sorry but just because a book is electronic doesn't mean it didn't cost money to produce. Granted we produce stuff because we love the hobby but at the same time this is work and you should be compensated. Look at the new Castle keepers guide priced at 31 for the pdf or Savage worlds originally priced at 20 per pdf. Mojo products priced at 20 bucks are the same. I know I'll pay it if it is quality work. Put it out and make it nice and the folks will come.
