petshoo I can go along with what you have said and how you see the models being able to have copyprotected and noncopy protected.
My objection has alway been why tie them into the Versions of Vue we like so well.
If C3d wants a store that is fine also with me. My complaint is all the work that has taken place which I see as a waste of time to keep and honest person honest. That does not make any sense at all to me.
Encryption and copyprotection should be up to the makers of the meshes and not be tied into our versions of Vue so they will only work with one version and if upgrade have to download again to get a newer version so it will work. I know there have been countless hours of what I think has been just plain nonsense when places like Rdan, Daz and the Marketplace here sell models you can download and backup on HD of CD and use in other versions on other machines.
Talk about being cheap and thinking everyone is a criminal who will be distributing the meshes is going to cost C3d a lot of money in my opinion that they would other wise be putting in the bank. I will not spend any money for how the store operates and I know of many others who decline to spend money at it also.
Doesn't anyone listen. I think not. I guess e-on and the store don't care about all the customers who don't like the way things have been handled and still being handled. :)

There is a big split going on with Vue users. The biased and the ones with open minds who have seen what has and is taking place. That should never have been because it just destroys friendship and bad feelings among the many Vue users.

Before the fiasco with the C3d store and all thats taken place it didn't use to be this way. Most all were here at Renderosity and now I see them being or trying to be lured away to the C3d site. Some are going and some will never go.
This is not good for business and surely takes money away from e-on which I am sure they can use all they can get. :)
Enough said as what I and other open minded people will not be heard so no use wasting the time to try to explain to them what it is we see. :)
