I think that allot of members loose the Point of the worries , actually there would not be an issue on how a program needs to be activated, but if there is a Kill switch in a Program then people get uncomfortable. if it were just a other creation Program there is less to worry as files you mostly use can be shared between many . So if one goes down you can use another. In the case of Poser there is a Huge Investment issue from 3rd Party creators who suddenly depend on the fact that the Poser owner can do with the Investments made just as they wish . The Packages you buy are not supported by any other Program without conversion in Poser. This is allot of Power if one has to worry that one morning all he has bought goes down the drain because the Licence is not renewed.

Like said Bondware does not give a darn about these worries just by saying give it time and have no worries ... the issue is not resolved this way ( Smith micro sure had the online activator but there was a backdoor with the Manual and the Permanent licence to make sure that Poser does not stop working ... the Manual is still active Btw. ) Bondware removed all these options no backdoor no Permanent licence . and this is the Point that makes Costumers and Creators worry to loose all the Investments .... or could in case of a shutdown the user ask for a refund of every Poser model at Renderosity to minimize the loss in such a case?

the way it is set up now is a big responsibility and there is a big risc of loss if they would loose access to there investments. I have alone over 1000 own creations from the past 4 years. With the thought that if there is an issue with that licence I could loose it all makes me feel really uncomfortable it even makes my site depend on this licencing system !!! I have my options as every Poser I possess has no call home and no kill switch this allows me to continue , newcomers will not have that options.

Compared with Daz studio once you have installed that Program there is nothing to be worried about you can even reinstall it with no worries in case of a crash or a new Computer! Yo do not have to worry that you could loose access to your Purchases of models or creations whilst there is no kill switch built in. So where do you think Future costumers and creators will go ? The actual Bondware model sure seems to be Doomed the way it is set up!
