A success story for this thread, I think!
Thank you kindly, sir, and you're right - it's this thread that caused me to formulate a resolution and stick to it. Without it, I'd have just lurched from whim to binge as I did before. One of my purchases was referenced in this post, from exactly a week ago.

So for now I'll wait. Maybe it will get cheaper and there's no point at all in buying it until I'm ready to crack its virtual binding.
OK, I'm not quite ready to read it, but I think the price justifies the purchase!
