If you're not willing or able to to discuss in good faith, then don't be surprised if I don't respond, there are better things in life for me to do than humour you. This signature is that response.
I wonder how many DMs running Phandelver who blocked the content from their players are going to be really upset in the coming weeks...
I'm also really glad that unlike Phandelver, Acquisitions Inc wasn't automatically comped to my account, because if it had I would be asking how to return it. Thank you for making that opt-in!

I dunno. The adventure has been around long enough that if someone really wanted to abuse meta/cheat, the paywall has been penetrated by longevity and a volume of live plays on record.
I think it's nice move on WotC/DDB part. I'm presuming this adventure is being retired so that Dragons of Stormwreck Isle will become the new Essentials Kit or what have you, I'm thinking that new set might have some modest tweaks to bring some of the basic rules more in line with stuff in XGtE/Tasha's ... if there's a window for giving the +2/+1 option to PHB races before 2024, it's probably that boxed set.

Jander Sunstar is the thinking person's Drizzt, fight me.
I agree that it's a great "Welcome to the Family" gift from WotC to all us subscribers. Freebies always make folks feel like they are more part of a thing, so it's a good marketing move, IMO. Also, being a guy who has refused to buy any modules (all homebrew here) it opens the door for me to try something officially published.

There was this Video on Youtube that talks about these freebies.

They said it would be free today but I have yet to figure out how to claim a copy. Is there to be a coupon code out there or will it be system change?
They should be free to claim now (although, oddly, I'm getting a "Page Not Found" error on Lost Mines:

I must say that releasing acquisitions incorporated to celebrate an acquisition is... appropriate.
Nice!
I've been meaning to check out Acq, Inc for a long time. Seems fun.
Lost Mines is automatically added I believe.
