I see what you are saying. They are doing a reprint to fix some errors or
make changes to the original. So, they have to print it or they'll continue
to sell the erroneous core books and have people download the update.
I was looking at it from a marketing standpoint to get people to purchase
another 25 or 30 dollar book that is 75% material that they already have.
Personally, I'd download and print out the addendum rather than spend
another 25 bucks for the "official" version. It's more to carry true, but
it's cheaper.

They're doing that. The SRD will be updated as well.

When 25% of it will be changed or revised, I'd rather just carry one
book. Of course people are more than content to buy the "Complete Book
of Stoutfellow Halfling Paladins".

As opposed to leaving errors in there when they have to reprint it
anyways?
