I do not want to purchase an add-on that requires a third party to "authenticate" it, when third party may or may not exist within a few years or while I'm still interested in playing it, whichever comes last.

My thoughts too. If I can make a back up, that's fine. If not, weelllll....

I'd still prefer to have a disc-in-a-box to buy though.

As long as it's easier to get than SH4: U-boat Missions was. Now, THAT was awkward. I don't like having to get a hold of something that isn't distributed very widely, at least initially.

I voted yes, but, as 'MGR 1' has stated, with the above proviso.

If I can't hold the box in my hand I won't buy it.

I tried to get UBM on Steam, but they said I was outside of their distribution area. To be fair their customer service did everything they could to help, but no joy.

Salt Lake City, Utah, is outside of their distribution area?

I got SH4 add on 1.5 online and it didn't hurt too bad. Everything went fine. Along with a couple other download add ons for flight sims. So it isn't that big to me. I just keep everything backed up on my own disks.

What, you thinking about going into business and developing an d/l only add-on, now that you've established that there's a market?
