Enough included base content to depict a teacher in a classroom, a housewife in a kitchen, a family in a car, a patient in a hospital bed, and a secretary in an office. Take it as a loss leader. Promise more specific scene paks (sets/clothing/props/lights) and charge for them. Zygote was interested in supplying general purpose props/accessories for professionals; in this regard DAZ may as well be an acronym for "DAZ Ain't Zygote." DAZ currently caters to the renderer of fantasy content; DAZ|Studio could have come with an office scene but it didn't. Whether the application is still renders, animations, advertising material or online porn comics, the needs remain consistent: the ability to depict contemporary scenes quickly and cheaply. Don't assume we like to spend hours combing Renderosity, SAMS3D, DAZ, etc. for content. Until professionals see an app that comes with the equivalent of the practical clip art that comes with Microsoft Office, "Poser = Nekkid Vicky hobbyist app" in the popular imagination. Trust me on this one.
