Purchase and Download?

[Shadowcat]

If they announced that they were going to release the game as a paid download one week from today, would you buy it and download it then?

'cause if you order it right now, you'll probably have it in your hands sooner than that (five days to deliver a long way around the world, in my case).

Sure you pay for physical postage, but that's a few dollars at most. If they do offer it for download, I think you'll find it will not happen in a big hurry, so if you want the game sooner rather than later, the postage is a really minimal premium to pay.

mojofraggle: SAIS is available as a paid download now, but it took many months before that option became available, so in actual fact this situation is "like the original".
