Yup. That is also why more successful PDF RPGs tend to have lower prices. SotC even had a bundle package where you could buy both the hardcopy and the PDF . That was ideal. That way you could DL the book and read it while waiting for your hardcopy to arrive. THe PDF is also useful if you have a laptop. One thing that I dislike about a lot of RPGs is the sheer number of books a GM needs to lug around. Esepcially in RPGs where each "group" has it's own group book. A player's book, GM's book, beastiary, equipment guide, setting book, and you are halfway to a hernia.
