If you buy the physical bundle version of the new Ravenloft release (https://marketplace.dndbeyond.com/category/6015000), does that mean none of that content will be available on DDB? When we bought physical books from WOTC, Amazon or a LGS it made sense that you didn't also get digital content on DDB. However, now that you're buying the physical book from the DDB marketplace it doesn't make sense to me to exclude the digital content, but the marketplace page doesn't explicitly say whether buying the physical bundle gets you all, some, or none of the digital versions.
I'm assuming the answer to my question is "no" and that's why there is a digital bundle, but I don't use VTT, digital dice or the mini adventures. If all future releases are physical OR digital with no crossover, its just another step down the path of moving away from DDB instead of using it more, as my players only make characters online (and then print them out) and prefer physical books, so there is less and less reasons to invest in the website if I'm constantly forced to choose.
Sorry, but the DDB marketplace doesn't exclude the digital version, and the options to get physical only, digital only, or physical plus digital bundle are clearly marked. And the physical + digital bundle is discounted compared to buying the two separate - $75 for the bundle vs. $60 for physical and $40 for digital. If your heart is set on just getting the physical version you can do that, but for only $15 more you can also have the digital version.

First D&D set: 1980 red box. Haven't stopped playing since. :)
The answer is, indeed, "no". Just because they sell them here doesn't make them a different product to what is sold elsewhere. Take that how you will.
Physical only is $59.99. Digital only is $33.99. Physical+Digital is $74.99
Thanks. Physical it is, I guess.
