SIgh... Must be nice, must be nice...

Well thanks for sharing those thoughts with us Ivy,

Though there is a whole other side to DRM, where as a content provider we spend hours upon hours chained to our desk to be rewarded within minutes of a new item being released in store, with the sight of our creations being stolen and distributed freely. And why not as they are just a .zip file with absolutely no protection at all. Really it's the equivalent of taking your new car to the ghetto leaving your keys in the ignition and going for a walk. Relying on nothing more than the goodwill of your fellow man that it will be there on your return.

And I'm not just talking a few little swaps here between friends, I'm talking stolen thousands of times in tens of different places within a single week of release. DRM isn't solely designed to be an imposition for yourself, the user. It's a mitigative effort to protect creative content from rampant piracy in the industry. It's not a matter of being passed over, it's a matter of modern content protection. Whether you know it or not DRM is likely on your phone, computer and entertainment systems, most have many forms of DRM on them. It's likely that the web browser you're using right now to read this has built in DRM support. This very webpage uses HTTPS which has built in support for DRM content. I noticed your cool video on Youtube, Youtube has DRM! Putting your video on Youtube is supporting a company that uses DRM...

So go on feeling that you don't like DRM, don't support and won't use it, but in reality you may be somewhat in denial.

And while you may feel those mods at Daz 3D were quite mean to you, they were just doing their jobs. Which from what I have seen at times isn't a position I would wish on anyone.

You may feel you're making a grand protest against DRM, but in reality you are just turning your back on Daz 3D and their efforts to protect their PA's content via Encryption. Which is your choice to make.

I'm honestly not trying to convince you of anything, you have made your position abundantly clear and I do wish you the best whichever path you choose to travel. And I hope Poser (18 times in last post...) delivers the tools you need for your animation projects. I'm sure the Poser crowd will be happy to see them and offer you any support you may need.
