any way you look at it its infringements galore. even if the person converting it for Second Life is not selling it and is only doing it for personal use, once it is in Second Life it is easily available to anyone that 'sees' your avatar ingame: there are copy bots widely available that harvest SL content.

this is against the Poser EULAs. i cant believe that
a) 3D Universe created this bullshit
b) Daz is actually selling it, knowing what will result (theyre not stupid)

They are probably betting that no one is using the CP textures to begin with.  However wouldn't people be using this to steal the new daz elite textures instead?  I'm surprised that the non-daz merchants who sell textures at daz are putting up with this. 

WARK!
