The film clips are fun and with a CD (as opposed to a download), there will be plenty of room for frivolity. I don't think he intends them to be much more than entertaining, but they could certainly be that -- imagine, an endlessly repeating loop of Ray on the 420th pitch, that includes a virus such that it fires up on your workstation every day at 4:20.

The CD and all it's frivolity sounds like fun, but personally I would prefer a quick download because, if, for instance, I had never been to Darrington and Friday night I decided to climb there the next day, I could log onto the internet, key in my AmEx number and boom-- 30 seconds later I have my guide for tomorrow. No waiting around for a CD to come in the mail. No need for a CD-ROM. I like the instant gratification of a download.

 

I would also think this would be less hassle for Dave-- no need to burn CDs and mail them to people. With a PDF download he could just set up the website and watch the money come rolling in-- no need for capital investment.

 

Just a suggestion. Then again, if Dave wants to package a climbing guide with a free back country porno with Caveman as a star, well maybe there's a market for that kind of thing? I really couldn't say...
