Ach, they just release the best content. Completely agree. The best figures, the best vendors, the best marketing system.

They don't want to create a full bore converter to Poser because they want to get you all into DS.

Once that's Poser is dead and forgotten, they can start to sell DS again.

Full circle business strategy.

Unfortunately for them, this generation of Poser users has all the content they need for V4/M4.

Next generation of 3D artists will probably move over to DAZ/DS if SM does not come up with valuable alternates.
