Not necessarily. Just the opposite I suspect. This way, in order to see what new thing is being offered at 1.99, you'll have to got to their website and see what else they have. Sort of like how they arrange the grocery store. In order to get to the milk, you have to go to the back of the store passing numerous other items that may tempt you.
JCLEAVER your exactly right. Its a marketing tool with proven results. You have to go treasure hunting and as you do..."oh look what else I've found, it may not be $2 but it is 30% off..better grab it too". These guys are no dummies. They're definatly creating a buzz which is something a company does just before they announce something big..epic perhaps!
Hi there, First thanks for the nice words. People have long been requesting smaller downloads so they can get only what they want or need. There was some hostility over the "mega-packs". Also some overseas customers have been concerned about fownload times. Breaking up larger products is just a way to address this. Dizzie, Loud and clear. We're on it. Anton

I'm on a dial-up connection, so I like the idea of the small packages too. Anything over 10 meg is a pain in the butt for me. :) A good example are the texture packages for the Sci-fi suit 2 for Mike. I have no real use for futuristic textures, but one of the smaller sets contains a pair of textures that look very medieval and appropriate for fantasy. I'll probably be buying that set a little later, and I'll be thankful that I don't have to download or pay for a lot of others I might not use. :) I have a lot of faith in DAZ and their future products, and I think any problems concerning them are minor compared to what many of us have gone through with Poser 5 and other marketplaces. Anton, your efforts and the work of everyone there are very much appreciated. SnowS Hoping his pictures are worth 1001 words. 1001 Words

I do not speak as a representative of DAZ, I speak only as a long-time member here. Be nice (and quit lying about DAZ) and I'll be nice too.
Thanks Anton! I also agree the smaller packages are a great idea and splitting textures, for instance, into several packages for 1.99 a package rather than a larger package of 4, for 8.99 or whatever, is a great idea. I bought just the textures I wanted and since they were just $2 ea. I bought more stuff....so I ended up spending more than the 8.99 but I got more of what I wanted and DAZ got more of my money...we're both happy campers...LOL
