Oh, it is on topic here, given that there has been considerable debate in recent months from people debating switching from Vue to Carrara.

Especially people looking for a better renderer to use than Poser. Vue has picked up a lot of custom from Bryce because it handles Poser figures better, but if Carrara handles them better still, it's tempting.

So there are two things to consider with regard to this news:

1. What does it mean for Vue users thinking of switching?
2. Will it force e-on to up their game if they want to stay in contention?
