I hate the concept of disposable art. As if art works on a timelimited basis. Good today, yesterday's fad. Some of Poserdom's very best textural artists have produced phenomenal textures for V3. These will in all likelihood never be duplicated. But as time moves on, more and more people will move to V4. Granted the V3 textures can still be used on the other Mil3 figures, until they're upgraded. 

So works of art, like Morris's Miss April, Sydd's Shahara or Ravenessa, Danae's Milla... what, they just become disposable trash?

I cannot see why this idea is so threatening to some people. If you've purchased V4, you will likely buy new works of art designed for V4, but with a remapped V4 you'll manage to snatch some true masterpieces off of the (eventual) virtual trash heap. That's a good thing.

And as for the legalities... DAZ has never, to my knowledge, been a slouch in the protecting their rights. If they aren't complaining...?
