Is there really already more content available for V4 than V3 (I say this with awe and surprise)? Because I've got about 3 gigs of V3 content, about 2/3 of which I haven't even gotten to use yet (lol). I'm asking because I'm about to delve into clothing content and I want to choose my figure carefully.

bandolin,
Quantitatively there are more free and for-sale items for V3 than V4, but not by much. And the stream of V3 items has slowed. Moreover, the quality of models keeps going up, and those provided for V4 are, as a broad generalization, of higher quality. That's just my opinion.

However, my choice of V4 is based largly on body shape; I can't get good arms and shoulders on V3 or Jessie or Miki. The attached render is and example of why I like V4; you can't get great human upper torso/arms/shoulders/neck with other models. By 'content available' I was referring to morphs and skin textures.
