And yet they have done exactly that.

This is beating the dead horse because they never said they would never abandon poser users.

Bull. They said exactly that. Wander back into the fora in the days of the first DAZ release, and you will find those exact words from them. They ran around to every forum out there and repeated it, almost relentlessly, because they knew, even then, that it was a possible PR disaster waiting to happen. For crying out loud, you dont tell the market that made you the company you are that you're no longer interested in their business. How idiotic would that be?

Again, this is beating a dead horse and this isn't how any reasonable company operates, especially with a management change. New management isn't beholden to any old policies or support anyway.

As 3D-Arena and I has said, you're responsible for your software choice, and SM is responsible for content needs. This "he said/she said" argument is unproductive when you're taking the wrong company to task for your needs. So you have three choices 1) Continue to use the software you want, but not have the content you need unless you take your complaints to that company, 2) Learn new software that will give you the content you want for the money you're willing to spend, or 3) learn to make content yourself. There isn't a choice to blame DAZ3D to force vendors into making poser stuff; DAZ doesn't force vendors to makes things so your suggestion would actually make them start and that isn't going to happen otherwise they would lose their vendors. I know I was done with M4 the second I could make a shorter or taller male with a custom body shape without pestering vendors to add custom fits to their clothing to accomodate that.
