Sorry, but what it boils down to is, you don't like the price, you're welcome to either buy another product or not use it. All, I repeat, all professional software is priced significantly higher than consumer software. If you don't believe me, look up the price of AutoCAD, Catia, Pro-E, or Oracle. It costs that much because it is much harder to develop then conventional software, and it is intended for only a small percentage of computer users, namely professionals, those who use it to make money. Considering how much money an average movie makes, Maya, Softimage, Lightwave, and Max are very reasonably priced. There is a reason why a GT2 category race car costs ten times more then a Toyota Camry. I don't understand why it's such a difficult concept to grasp. As for Millie, I will not buy her because she's not worth 60 bucks to me, not because charging that much is somehow unfair.
