I have purchased a few items form DriveThruRPG. The first item was protected
via DRM and was a nightmare. I spent hours on the phone with adobe trying to
get access to my legally purchased pdf. In the end I never actually got the
damn thing openned.

I was not the only one that had serious problems so they turned off DRM and
went to watermarking. At the bottom of each page is a note that includes my
name. The idea is that if I choose to share my pdf they can track who is
sharing it and take appropriate action.

Overall the quality of the pdfs at DriveThruRPG are higher than other
locations but the prices are also higher.

Thanks, Shane. The DRM brouhaha must have been what I heard about. I'll have to look through their catalog and give them a try. I've been wanting the Gear...
