Oh you will never EVER hear me disagree with you there BA.  I'm not a big fan of merchant resource packages, but they've become quite popular around the entire 3d community.  I would just hope that new vendors have more ethics and morals when using resources.  I mean lets face it, if they do nothing more than slap a second skin on a resource, they'll never make a "name" for themselves, at least not in a positive way, and they'll never go far in this industry.
