I just came across this deal on another forum concerning the animation and rendering software "Messiah" which I thought might be of interest to other Blender users.
Quote from the website:
"We're doing an unprecedented viral test marketing campaign where your success in sharing this offer will allow you and others to get our amazing award winning animation and rendering software ( messiahStudio5 ) for the unheard of price of just $10 (regularly $499) or choose the Pro version for just $40 (regularly $1195). When this experiment ends, the prices will return to normal. This is the same software that studios and individuals, in more than 60 countries of the world, have been using to create visual effects for some of your favorite movies, commercials, games and music videos; and now you can get it at a no excuses price, if you "Dare To Share™". "

I have never used Messiah so I can't give an opinion on how good the software is or how hard/easy it is to use but at the ridiculous price that they are offering it at I am prepared to add it to my Blender toolkit.

Well i dont see why i should pay 10 or 40 dollar, for this blasphemous ;) piece of 3d software, if i can get blender for free? Looks like a last resort pr stunt to me anyway.
If this is a serious post plz state in wich way this software is better then our belovedand free Blender?

I don't know enough about the program to compare the rigging and animating in Messiah to Blender but for the cost of a movie ticket I am more than prepared to buy Messiah for an alternate renderer to Blender.
