They usually offer products in print or PDF. I know I'm only interested in the PDF at this time. I might spring for the print run of the Bestiary.I love the layout and most of the artwork.
Still not sold on the whole "green-ish" them, but that's just me...
Will it be available in PDF or only in print?
I said "should" - > the pdf production once you have a functioning source costs the developer so little its old school thinking in my opinion to charge people more than once. When I buy a movie on a disk it often comes with a code for me to enter on-line to get access vial other methods (and that online access costs the Dev much more than posting a pdf).A free PDF with the hardcover is certainly not the norm. More typical is a discounted bundle price to buy both, or a free PDF if you subscribe to a line of books directly from the publisher, like Paizo does.
I definately would not just ‘expect’ to get the PDF for free just because you buy the hardcover.
