Hi everyone,
I'm not sure that I'm posting this in the right place but this forum seemed to be most fitting for my question.
There are some web-based services where you can (for a certain fee of course) download various magazines in a digital version and read on your computer an exact copy of the actual printed magazine. There is also an option to subscribe to the digital version. I'm not sure if mentioning the name of such a service constitutes as some kind of advertisement, so I'm not going to name it. Anyway I think this is a very convenient method of subscribing to a magazine, you miss nothing because the digital copy is absolutely the same as the paper one, there is no chance of your copy getting lost in the mail or anything.
So, my question would be: is the Paizo staff considering in the near or not so near future to issue Dungeon and/or Dragon magazines in a digital format like I described above?
Thanks for any responses and I do apologize if this kind of topic has already been discussed anywhere on these boards before.

This is actualy a fairly common question, but that's okay.
At this time, our license with Wizards of the Coast allows us to produce and sell PDF copies of a magazine only once that issue has sold out, so there are no plans for us to offer a digital version of either magazine. Even once a magazine sells out, it's a fairly complex process to get it all PDF'd up (it's not just as easy as hitting a save button, since we have to strip out the ads and do some reformating), so even when a magazine DOES sell out, it takes a bit for us to get a PDF copy up online.
