I still have my Poser products here in the RMP, but I would never sell my C4D plugins here.  Let's do the math, shall we:

I've made $8000+ minus PayPal's ~5% selling it at my website through PayPal - about $7700 income.

If I sold it here, despite the conveniences (credit cards and publicity), that would come out to be about $3400 income.

My next plugin might make $50,000 in a similar time period.  To give Renderosity 60% of that would be suicide!  I stand to make $47,500 profit.  The alternative would be $20,000.  That's a difference between pocket-money and real income.

The differences aren't amazing, but enough to make one wonder if the effort to conform is worth it - $27,000 isn't worth the minor conveniences!
