Quote - I disagree. I think , unless Daz shoot themselves in the foot too often , Poser as such will price itself out of the hobby market .

When I started with Poser it was Poser 5 at $179 or Daz Studio free. At that time Daz Studio just didnt run well enough to consider , so I bought Poser 5. Today I would have taken Daz Studio and spent some money on content .

Poser content is sorting itself into two camps already. Some vendors supporting both . Originally it seemed the difference was textures . Now some of the stuff has two different obj files , each optimised for either Poser or Studio.   The subd stuff is going to make it worse.

If Daz release a decent cloth simulator and rigging toolset Poser wont be needed .

Just my thoughts ....

You know you do have a point there it would be very easy for Daz to do this. But I also had the understanding that if you bought all the plugins for studio it was more than a copy of poser? I could be wrong as I haven't really priced all the bells and whistles of D/S.
