I agree with the branch of this thread that points to the idea that the big deal isn't that Daz will own Bryce and there will be a new tiny logo in the corner but... that if they own the software could incorporate the render engine (which I was always happy with) and allow us to put moving Daz people into those environments which was always lacking. I walked away from using Bryce two years ago so I could learn Lightwave. I would prefer a faster way of getting my Daz people in that environment. But we shall see.
