I doubt this will really have that drastic an effect on the current Poser communities and 3rd party vendors any time soon. I welcome anyone who wants to create additional content but just databasing what's available isn't all that exciting to me. They are still going to have to face the pricing structure and quality issues as all the rest.

I've noticed that 3D model vendors that try to simultaneously sell to the various markets including Poser models have a hard time dealing with the Poser pricing structure. That's why we see these ludicrous prices like $150 for an untextured Soccer ball model when we are used to getting professionally designed human figure models with all the bells and whistles for $50 or less.

All in all it sounds a bit reminiscent of the "Web Links" file menu option that has been around since Poser 4.
