I have a question. Let's suppose that Poser does get killed off and dies an honorable death. What do you think that would mean for DAZ and Studio? Like, would Studio still be free or would it be for sale again?

DS originally sold for $400.00 n then some. DAZ has some odd plugin ways. The dynamic thing I haven't looked in to but think it cost a lot to make them.

Anyways Poser does not effect DAZ at all in anyway Dead or Alive.

and DAZ does not effect Poser at all in anyway Dead or Alive. other then we make it matter.

DAZ was a Poser vender that's all DAZ ever was to Poser. HiveWire3D Step in n took DAZ Vender spot with Dawn.

Being DAZ split in 2 to HW3D n DAZ .HW3D n Dawn is still DAZ

I have to disagree. Everyone looks at DAZ and thinks that Genesis is the main reason that Studio use has pulled ahead of Poser, but don't forget that since Studio is free it's a lot like how AOL used to do with CompuServe. Those AOL disks were EVERYWHERE. On cereal boxes, in magazines, at checkout counters, in your mail. Eventually, you tried it and a lot of it stuck.

it's fine ,it's fine you disagree and I do get your point but Blenders free ,Houdini's $200 a year but hasn't effected the other main 3D app's Max ,Maya $1470.00 a Year .Mudbox is $10 a month ,zBrush is still $800.00.DAZ gives there $400.00+ app away for free cause no one would buy it.

For some unknown reason I never get ,Where always just comparing Poser vs DAZ. With out MAX,zBrush,Photoshop or the likes ,there is no Poser or DAZ.

DAZ and Poser could both die n the 3D universe wouldn't care or even notice.

If C4D,Mudbox,PaintShop or the likes Died the 3D universe would care and notice.It would be the Death of 3D.and we'd half to go back the crayola crayons.

Oh, I already know that if Poser died tomorrow, Blender would be my next app of choice.
