Wait...sell Poser content other than to make money? What other reason is there? If they aren't doing it for money it would be free, wouldn't it? In our quest to own every Poser item we desire we forget that a very hard working individual or individuals is behind it doing all the dirty work we can't/don't wanna do. How many freebies does an oil painter get? Or someone who does model trains for a hobby? We're losing focus that for MOST of us this a a big, fat hobby and nothing else. Just like any other hobby. And most other hobbies are way more expensive. I just don't know what to say anymore.

And if any vendor (which IS a business) isn't pricing their items by averaging the time spent by the amount of items they're likely to sell is the sad state of affairs content vendors are in. I get that Daz is a business that what businesses do is to undercut the other guy, but someone just starting out can't afford to give stuff away for free. Daz didn't either - those of us who have been around since Daz's beginning know what I mean ;). The shit was expensive. And we all paid it.
