Everything is PDF/Excel based and can be customized and printed on demand. The guide also updates continuously as news is added to Rotoworld's site. For example, everything has reportedly been updated already to reflect Keith Foulke's retirement.
Has anyone purchased this year's package, or one in the past? Rotoworld is my #1 fantasy news source and I purchased their draft guide in magazine form last season and was pleased, so I'm giving definite thought to getting the online guide. I'm just finding it hard to stomach the $15 price tag in addition to the money I'll be shelling out for StatTracker and my league's hefty entry fee...

I purchased it last year, and to me the $15 was worth the time ultimately saved through reviewing their rankings and downloading and sorting their projections. (And I won my league last year.) I bought again this year.
I haven't tried the Season Pass. For the small amount of potential money in our league, I didn't want to pony up another $10 when I was also buying Yahoo StatTracker.
But the Draft Guide has all the things you mention. It ranks the top 250 players, AL, NL, and Mixed. I don't remember 2006 Stat Leaders, but it has projected 2007 Stat Leaders, the top 10 in each category from their projections.

In the screen shot of Season Pass located at the URL below, I see a link under Stats Explorer that says, "Live Scoring". I sent a note to the Rotoworld admins asking whether this is similar to Yahoo's StatTracker, if it updates real time, etc.
Either way, would you recommend the Rotoworld online guide over the purchase of a couple print magazines from the store (Rotoworld, Sporting News, ESPN, Fantasy Index, etc)?

I'm not really familiar with magazines except for Rotoworld, which I purchased in years before going to the online guide. The online guide has everything that's in the print magazine and more, plus the projected stats and rankings are updated periodically, which you can't do with a print publication.
I just got a note back from Rotoworld. I was told that Season Pass's "Live Scoring" is very similar to Yahoo's StatTracker. However, in a fantasy points league, it will not show accumulated fantasy points.
