Fantasy Grounds Licenses are Now FREE! Plus Online Digital Reader launched in Beta

In the new "My Library" online viewer, in the drop-down to select a Game System, I noticed that Mutants & Masterminds is not listed. I understand their may not be and product transferred yet, but I see all other systems represented, even if content hasn't been transferred yet (such as Rolemaster).

Great news. Will my subscription stop billing automatically, or do I need to cancel it myself?

I applaud your move to F2P and as a long-time paid-up ultimate licence holder have enjoyed the benefits of use that I have had over the last 6 or so years.
For you to Recognise that we paid that money and giving us something, anything, this far down the track?
That's unheard of in my experience with software!
So thank you for that!

Another thought on the whole - "How many copies of all the books do we need in a group" debate.

Having just gone and claimed my reward credits and been given the option to gift my previous purchases to another user, could this be done in perpetuity?
So for example, a DMG, TCoE, XGtE etc is purchased and gifted back and forth amongst a group of friends so the "forever DM" gets a break and the new, license-free DM gets access to the books to host for adventure running and hosting for the players - no need to import character sheets or whatever so the experience for all users in that group is pretty seamless.
Could help foster new DMs and make FGU even more appealing?

Another thought that might be bounced off publishers - register a group and get a bulk discount - many of my TTRPG friends are book hoarders and will eventually want to own stuff - might make for a quicker sale and some even stickier loyalty if they knew that 5 copies got a modest discount if done together or within a registered group, perhaps?

Snarky McGee, I've canceled the subscription listed on your account.

Why I don't see my Dungeon Crawl Classics Ruleset in the online reader? because I bought it in the past on steam? Now I buy everything directly but would be nice to have everything I own on the reader.

No. Because the Reader is in Beta and as stated in the OP:

It already supports hundreds of titles from popular publishers and systems, and SmiteWorks is actively working to expand that coverage throughout the beta period.

In short, it takes time for them to convert 20 years of content that was made in different formats and styles. They launched with something like 1600 of 4000 titles available. A week or so ago I think they said something like they were past 2000 titles. I'm sure they are doing the more recent and popular ones first. DCC might not be high on the list (I don't know).

As LordEntrails states, we haven't converted it to the reader yet. We plan to add a mechanism that indicates whether you own something - perhaps with a 'Coming Soon' message of some kind. That way you will know that you will get it once the conversion process is complete.

This is great. I tend to buy my stuff on Steam, since that is where I had started getting stuff, but I know sometimes the FG store page doesn't always show that I already own stuff. Hopefully that doesn't translate into the library missing stuff as well.
