Well put Stephen Ray .... DAZ can really screw themselves and the 'pre DAZ' owners of BRYCE 5 if they do not offer a very decent upgrade path to 5.5. It seems to me that DAZ figures that the only use for BRYCE is to couple it with their POSER addon offerings. This is a bad stance for DAZ to take, I strongly suspect that the bulk of BRYCE owners do not import POSER figures into their scenes, though some obviously do. I foresee were E-ON will be offering a steeply discounted upgrade path to their new offering for previous owners of BRYCE. As VUE continues to move forward, despite some buggy little problems, which all software seem to have, BRYCE may well become a stepchild in the DAZ catalog, its only purpose being to sell more POSER addon offerings.
