The first thing that got me interested in Lightwave was its extremely realistic render capability.
Since then, I've started doing some research into various high-end 3D programs: 3DS, Maya, Lightwave....also trueSpace. So far, Lightwave seems to come out on top of the heap. While all of the programs have their advantages, Lightwave produces incredible renders out of the box, and it doesn't need some sort of add-on or plug-in to achieve this. A couple of the other programs need plug-ins to do some serious rendering.
Also, many individuals believe that Lightwave is more user-friendly than the others. It has a better interface.
However -- I've got more research to do.
