Personally, I hate it. The problem is that Marvel also sells those same digital comics for $3.99 without the print copy. So those of us who buy digital comics get less value for our money than those who buy print. This is exacerbated by the fact that other companies discount their comics by $1 or so (some by $2) after a month, while Marvel does not. So a two month old comic from most publishers costs $1.99, but the Marvel costs $3.99.
Needless to say, I buy fewer Marvel books than those of other publishers.
If you're asking for a digital bundle, be careful what you wish for as you may not find you like once you've got it.

man, I just started a thread on comic ebook prices. Let our voices be heard.
oh, and while on topic: you'd recognize a far more civilized society when citizens would know not to judge a book by its cover: be it a bluray, DVD, download or paper, it's still the same book underneath.
