Some interesting comments ... but I wasn't aware there was this billion market of 3DsMax users eager to pay $40 for V7 (naked & without clothing!) :).

I doubt DAZ is greedy - likely they just want to make payroll month by month. Most companies work that way. Still, as a Poser PRO 2014 user who kind of, almost got the DSON import working predictably a few months ago, I signed up to DAZ3D "PC club" again after 4 years of absence, plus spent (per my credit card records) close to $400 on G2F content at Daz and rendo in May - building up a basic library. It has been fun, and assuming I clear the DSON cache often enough it works.

Still, I'll keep an eye on DAZ, and if they move to only G3F and non-Poser, I'll drop them again. Will they care? not likely (given the billion $$ 'other tool' Market some posters say DAZ is chasing.) It is like the poster who added a comment to one of my forum threads about how "If Poser doesn't soon work on Linux, I'll seek other options!" SNORT! Many of us are BIG frogs in very small ponds!
