Look at the costs for higher end 3d content for professional use, comapre them to the LOW prices Daz charges for Elite, and get back to me when you realise how UNDERPRICED poser content really is.
I create poser content for a living.. abotu half my products have never made me over $9 a hour developing them. In comparison, if I went "pro" doing 3d content for commercials, films n such I could easily increase my income by no LESS then 5 times as much.
I do this because I liek doing it, and can do whatever the hell I please, but the low selling price of poser content is really hurting and driving away many poser content creators.
When everything else you see around you is going up 30% or more in cost, it only stands to reason that content creators, including Daz will HAVE to raise prices in order to survive.
Imagine waking up tomorrow, with NO Daz, NO Rendo, NO RDNA, and only CP for whatever new poser content might come out, because they sell the actual program.
No company is stable in these troubled times, and everyone and every company is struggling with increased costs, a lousy economy, and how to deal with them.
Heck, elcetricty and heatin costs are supposedly going up 25-30% this year.. How do you expect companies like Rendo and Daz make that additional money?
Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.
