Hi Anthony! I think all these threads are a good thing for the Poser community, I'm sure you see our concern. The bottom line is that while the software locks protect Curious Labs' investment, it is surely going to hurt your sales, as many are going to wait-and-see rather than rush out and buy the product. I surely am, I've always been the last on the block to do any upgrade anyway, and this scares me. You guys are going to have to weigh the sales you are going to loose from warez aginst the delayed and lost sales from the lock, as surely their will be some, not to mention the loss of goodwill. Oh, for a simpler time when people were honest!
