Only the DS Base is free. To match a Poser version you end up paying way more than poser and still can't do some things. I don't know why that is such a hard concept for so many to understand but it is. I have nothing agaist DS, just that silly free mentality.

Just because you don't use the content does not mean others don't.

What DAZ has done in a short time compared to Poser is such an easy answer but again another concept to hard to understand my many. Poser did all the grunt work in 4/5 versions. Daz did not have to start from scratch.

The only thing I will agree with is I think the library sucks big time I don't like it or how it is done but that is a personal preference.
