@ WandW

Also I'm not sure why the dedication to comparing Poser with DAZ3D, it's like comparing Apple with Internet Explorer or Microsoft with Itunes. One is an asset (a thing owned by a company) and one is an organisation/company.

I responding to a comment by another poster who brought up SM. The point I was trying to make is that the management of DAZ has changed (The article I linked to above mentions NTT Domoco's stake in DAZ, as well of those of a couple of other capital firms which are no longer active.) It is no longer run by artists but by businessmen, and changes there are entirely consistent with preserving corporate value. People shouldn't get bent about it, because it won't make a difference...

Again, this is just not true, Investors don't run companies unless ,individually, they hold a majority of the companys equity. Companies are ran by a managements team and report to their investors. There is a big difference. The link I provided shows Daz currently has 4 major investor groups and I doubt any hold a majority of equity over Daz3D unless you can show otherwise it's speculation. Having a stakes is totally different than owning a company. People get bent out of shape when you state fallacies like there true in most cases. Especially when they are intended for no purpose other than to be malicious. Have you met the Daz Management team? Your speculating maliciously to what end? The link you have provided doesn't prove any of the assumptions you're putting out there.
