The Basic Rules can be downloaded for free from Wizard's Website. Overall the marketing and presentation of D&D 5e represent a remarkable recovery from the issues that surrounded D&D 4e.
One of the friendly jokes about D&D 5e is that it is everybody's second favorite edition to play. The main reason it that it successfully melded some of what people liked about newer editions with some of the ease of use of older editions including the initial 1974 release of D&D.
