I think the rift between the two companys has lessened since P5, but perhaps it seems more a lack of cooperation simply because the V4 figure and P7 app are just that much more complicated themselves technolically. i dont think the primary reason DAZ releazed D/S was to compete with Poser, it was released to help sell more Vicky's. And it did that by getting more people started in 3d art with a little cash to start. Im imagine e/F probably saw an increase in sales due to all the new Vicky's out there as a result of D/S release because peeps who started with DS wanted to move on to the Big App
