Quote - Is HiveWire going to sell Dawn out of DAZ or Renderosity etc etc online stores that's allready up or are they going to make there own online store ?
Their best bet would be their own store. This way there's a better shot at staying independent.
As for the application urination contest, and the hilarious armchair predictions by obvious amateurs in the business world? Whatevs.
Here's how it's gonna go:
DAZ and SmithMicro will continue pumping out new versions of apps. DAZ will continue making stuff that folks will use - be it V4, Genesis, or whatever. SmithMicro will rely on DAZ and others for their content, thus their continued survival. Chris' venture may or may not pan out - depends on how well he and his team can build and market the thing(s) - IMHO, they have a solid team and a solid start - time will tell from there.
Most importantly? All of these companies will continue talking to each other, laughing on the phone together, and overall working together to keep the community going ...in spite of its most vocal members. ;)
