Poser merchants suffer from the effects of rampant piracy. When people don't get paid for the weeks or months spent creating their work, they stop producing. Who can blame them?

Where's Ayn Rand when you need her? Down in the cellar eatin' sauer kraut? Save me some, I love the stuff. Especially with potatoes and sausages.....umm hmm.

This, and many users of poser and daz simply don't know or understand how good they have it.  If you were to commission such a project like one of the RD phenotypes (assuming you can even find a high end CG level artist willing to model/texture/rig for poser), we're talking 10-20K ballpark.

Poser content is VERY cheap, compared to the costs involved in making some of these items.  I expect if piracy and other factors continue, other high end content makers (Stonemason, etc.) may be forced to throw in the towel as well.
