I buy a lot of digital RPG books - the shelf space in my apartment is ultimately limited, while the space on my hard drive is far less constrained (despite current storage prices). Furthermore, while the reading experience is still slightly better for physical books, I have a color e-ink reader which comes close enough for my purposes.
However, I do have a pet peeve with some RPG publishers: They refuse to give the files proper file names. Paizo is the worst offender among them, though not the only one.
I mean, I don't mind if the file name includes the product code. It's fine if a "PZO13008E" somewhere in there.
But please, for all that is unholy, make the file name "PZO13008E Hellfire Dispatches" instead of just leaving it at that! When I am making large purchases of multiple books - which I do frequently - I have to go on a renaming orgy:
- Open the file
- Check what product this file represents
- Close the file
- Rename the file
If the file name included the actual product title, I could skip steps 1-3.
Yeah, but why should I be the one to do it, and not the company?
Because capitalism made it that consumers are just money cattle, and deserve no respect.
So you prepare the revolution, and in the meanwhile you manage :p
It's not like you pay them...
Oh wait.
I mean, I realize that the margins in the TTRPG industry are razor-thin.
Still, this doesn't sound like something that should require a lot of effort.
