This is obviously a personal choice, but I think the choice depends on several variables. I am getting ready for my first PF game in years. We are starting Kingmaker in two weeks. There is no reason to think Kingmaker will be in the CM, so this doesn't really effect me right now. However, I will admit that the price points are high enough to make me really pause and consider what I will be paying for on the CM. I tend to enter things in RW as I am playing the game. So, I enter the info for a few sessions at a time usually. This does take some time, but it also allows me to organize as I see fit and I gain valuable familiarity with the material via entering it. I was expecting the cost to be roughly equal to what a PDF runs me (that may not have been reasonable, but true nevertheless), so this is a bit of a shock. Honestly, some of this depends how they break it up. If I can spend $25 every couple of months to get the materiel I need, I can see doing it. If I have to buy the whole AP in one chunk for $100+ I might not. Short sighted of me? Perhaps, but the monthly budget only has so much in it for RPG stuff. Also, we don't yet know what cloud service will cost. So, that $25 a month might end up being nearly twice that. Regardless of how reasonable the prices are, I am only willing to pay so much.
I kind of hope that they will produce some original content that is system neutral. I have high hopes for the player created content that is coming down the pike. Give me a great story that is well organized and I can add the mechanical bits. If I can pick up a solid RW module for under $15 I would certainly do it.
