The question is, how do you keep companies (such as ours) from using the hobbyist pricing model?  Meaning, how would you distinguish between this?

I think that would be tough to do...

To me, it seems like there should be one price....and thats for computing time.  If you want to render a full, 3600px wide Radiosity image with a 2+ boost with all sorts of bells and whistles...you shouldn't really have issue with paying $90.  That's one hell of an image to render...

If you don't want to pay sub $100, well then find away around such render settings that cause this.  A GI with a -1.0 quality boost looks GREAT...bet the render time would have been 1/5th the time and 1/5th the price...$20.

Wanna try expensive? Try ResPower...haha.  Oofda.  :(
