Quote - As for Studio- I have no desire, need or want to "update" (for a beta version of another version of Studio) on a program that I already have two versions of.  DS3A and DS4 Pro are enough for me- not to mention that with each version released they(daz3d.com) requires you to re-purchase the plug-ins that I have for the previous version.

Most plugins do not require a repurchase - of the DAZ-owned plugins the only ones that were upgraded rather than updated were the content creation tools. Reality (not DAZ-owned) required the new version to be used in DS4, but that was a general upgrade to a new version that was happening anyway.
