It's not what you want to hear, but it would be a bad idea to support Genesis, they'd be helping the competition destroy themselves.  What they need to do is make sure they have their own thing so that Genesis loses it;s appeal.  In a thread a year or so back, I predicted that DAZ would pull what they just pulled with Genesis 3.  And what SM (and places like Renderosity) need to be concerned with, is my prediction of moves to follow - which is this:

My prediction (and it is stronger now than it has ever been), is that DAZ might be working towards a locked-in content system.  I think the content manager and all that crap is basically the foundation of such a system.  All DAZ have to do in the future is release a new version of DAZ Studio that cannot load externally purchased content, only content on your DAZ account that was purchased from DAZ.  They have the perfect recipe for it now.  A figure that everyone is drooling over, and program that cannot be changed, which can be yours for free.  If DAZ decided to implement such a thing, that would be the end of stores such as this one, cause just as Apple make sure that all apps are purchased from them, DAZ could design a system where all content must be purchased form DAZ.  Assuming there's someone at SM with the sense to see these things, you won't be seeing Genesis support in Poser.  If Genesis support comes to Poser is simply means that someone over there who is not worthy, is getting paid far too much money for nothing.  I have the perfect, easily implemented solution to this, but without pay, they'll never find out what it is.

Have fun, but above all ...
THINK!

The funny thing is that DAZ3D wants this stuff to work in Poser(DAZ3D make $$$ from selling content, which platform you use doesn't particularly matter to them really) so in a way they are helping keep the Poser market viable and have been for a number of years by offering things like DSON. If what you say is true why did they develop DSON at all? Again you seem to be mistaken DAZ3D hasn't pulled anything, they have been designing market leading figures for how long now? why should they stop innovating just to keep Poser compatibility? Your speculation of DAZ is rather LARGE considering you have no evidence but your own imagination of anything like this happening. Let's face it Pumeco people are not going to be satisfied with naked v4's in temples forever nor with v4 with wings and nice makeup set sitting on a mushroom. If SM/Poser wants to survive they need to innovate and create content that the market wants. Or partner with a market leading content provider. IF they fail to do this they have no one to blame but themselves for a decline. In fact there is a bit of a contradiction in your statement so Daz are trying to drive Poser out by not supporting Poser with G3 and to stop them succeeding in doing that Poser shouldn't support G3. Wouldn't Poser offering G3 support be the best way to stop a locked in system from Daz? Why are SM worried about who makes the content they sell a software platform, no?
