Ok, so a few months ago I posted this in response to the Death from the Skies digital release:

I just showed my wife the price of the Death from the Skies book on the GW site and then asked her what she thought a digital copy might be sold for. She is crazy about her kindle so she stated that digital versions of books on there are usually sold for at least 20-30% less than a physical copy. I then went to the itunes store (I don't own an ipad) and showed her the savings one will find on the digital copy, a whopping 1 cent (for those of us in the States). She literally laughed.

Ok, my wife normally laughs a little at me for collecting little green men (Orkz), but I get the feeling that most anyone outside of the hobby would immediately have a similar response. Honestly, I find being charged full price for a digital copy that can only be used on expensive devices produced by one select company downright insulting. I love what GW makes but their business decisions over the last couple of years are near insufferable.

I haven't had much time for 40k this summer so the news about codices being released on formats other than apple products was news to me. But then I looked online today and saw that not only can I now get some of the army books for my android devices, but I can also get then for less than the price of the physical copy (actually about 33% less!). Doth my eye deceive me? Did GW actually listen to their fans/customers complaints? After years of price increases from GW I'm having a bit of a hard time knowing what to say. I guess I actually need to thank GW for hearing us out and giving us what we wanted. Thanks GW!

You're a few weeks late to the party...

Yes, it's a good move, but not news at this point.
