    I prefer books myself but this move makes sense. A lot of people prefer a digital copy and this kills two birds with one stone.

      From the article, “It’s also a move that comes with a price increase, especially for those who don’t pre-order the books.”

      Of course there’s a price increase.

      But they aren’t giving you the pdf with it either. They’re giving you access to a digitized book that they can cut off access to whenever they want to push the next edition. It’s just another example of Hasbro missing the entire point of the community’s complaint.
