The reason is certainly because its not selling well and programs like VUE offer such higher value for the buck. I have Truespace 4 and barely use it. It's a nice program but they are caught in the crunch between software like VUE and MAX and Lightwave. It's a tough place for a lesser known mid-range program like Truespace... Also, you should have downloaded the free Amapi software that was being handed out last month. You can upgrade that to the latest version for a fairly low price. Amapi has also been combined under Eovia, a TGS company, which is also coming out with the new Carrara, another mid-range program like Truespace, which is due out at ANY TIME NOW. It may also be why Truespace (Caligari) is feeling the pressure...
