Anyone old enough to remember Napster being a thing will also remember how the media industry hit back hard with lawsuit after lawsuit … until Napster became a shallow copy of its former self and the community moved onto different systems, which got hit by lawsuits.

Heck … the words ‘torrent’ are forever linked with ‘illegal’ downloads as opposed to being a really nifty technology to allow for fast downloads without the need for servers with a big fat internet connection ….

Yes … technology-wise we are getting very close to this being as ‘plug&play’ as it could possibly hope to be. Especially resin printers appear to be very good in that aspect.

I think we will really see what the future holds once Disney & co start to harass the websites that may or may not have copyrighted products in their catalog. And they will do so once enough people start downloading and printing them instead of buying them from the likes of FFG …

As for GW getting into this ?
I doubt they will, because they are pushing the ‘collectability’ aspect of the hobby more than the creative/DIY aspect.
Their fans/customers are not scared by the relative high prices of their products, because the branding and quality is there.
