I doubt Shadowrun sourcebooks will be publicly available over the internet
for a long time.

However, I *would* like to see a CD released, perhaps, with all the old
sourcebooks/adventures that are no longer available on it. Charge a decent
amount for it, even.

The trouble is, in any electronic format the books would be too easy to
copy. Photocopying 200+pages for a sourcebook or two isn't my idea of fun,
but run that CD burner for 20 minutes, or d/l from a website overnight, and
there you go. Neither option is likely to happen any time soon.
