Maybe daz studio AND poser will both be successful well into the future I agree with you, it's distinctly possible. Poser has new owners and backers who aren't going to arbitrarily ditch it (yet), there's always a need for low priced introductory level 3D Apps and they'd be foolish to shelve it. Studio fills or will fill another much needed niche in several markets. There's no reason why they both can't evolve and succeed very much independant of each other. The presence of Vue didn't destroy Bryce (Corel did that all on their own). Lightwave hasn't hurt the Max market and XSI hasn't killed Maya. There's always space for applications and user preferences that will keep things going.
