atm. it's not that bad, even if you think there is lot of them (i think i know about 3 or 5 more indie games / music sale projects)
it's still ok, as long as it's sub 10 (or 20) ... then users don't suffer from the 'too many choices' paradox
sure even more is not bad (competition)
but in moment the number of 'sales' points grow too big
then the overall income for these projects comes rapidly down (too fragmented market)
when that happen You can expect some service die fast and rest start to 'merge'

Agreed...flooding the market with bundles just drives the price down for consumers. It's not really a wise decision to make fundraising competitive, especially when we can just split what we'd normally pay between all of them and get every game.

I agree. For the first Humble Bundle I thought that was something special and paid accordingly. Since then the prices I pay for bundles have gone down. Initially I was also inclined to buy all the Humble Bundles for the value and charity aspects, but I started skipping bundles with time. These bundles still make me buy games I otherwise probably wouldn't have, but they've really devalued them,

I wonder if it's just me or there really is too much bundles at the same time?

Starting 14.02 - making me hope for something really good - that's what I'm keeping my money for
http://www.humblebundle.com/
Ending 14.02 - I would buy above average just for World of Goo (I do have the game on CD but it would be nice if I could play without searching for it) but the time wasn't best for it since I already was waiting for upcoming Indie Royale

Ending when the copies are gone - I hate new system, really! I already own 1st IG bundle so I've got choice between less or more ~6$ (and to say 6$ is all I have to spend right now - I guess more will come after 22.02) seems fine but... actually what I like most in this bundle is music (4 of 6 new ones) and splitting payment like that leaves me hanging (yeah, the album I like the most is in above average price thing). My problem is that the copies might end before IR starts (<- the one I want to see if will be worth buying before getting rid of my money)

Starting 14.02 - Seems like something decent but does it really have to be THIS date?
To say, all of them have something worth spending money to but in my opinion making them in (almost) the same time is missing the goal. The charity is awesome but since there is too much of it some of us will buy it at lowest possible price(and I guess that sadly so will I)
