Im primarily a 2D artist.
I use Poser 4 for its original purpose has an aid to 2D composition.
When I looked into the poser forum I discovered the EULA of P5 and it saved me a load of money.
I WILL NOT be buying P5 so long as it has this Draconian EULA associated with it. (Or any other program with a similar EULA)
Thanks to a few good individuals I was alerted to the BIG BROTHER attitude, and the money I had saved for Poser 5 was spent on software by other companies.
Like most of the people here I will only support software by buying it:
Warez kids are scum and , more to the point, they will not comment in this forum.
So, thanks to the vocal efforts of a few good people I was able to make an informed decision whether or not to buy this software.
When CL gets in touch with reality they will have another customer.
Bugs be damned All new software has these and theres no denying that fact.
If CL survives this farce they will fix the program. Of that Im sure
But will they survive it?
Possibly, and good luck to all those people who are working so HARD to make this a realistic, working tool for us artists.
But the important fact is this: Am I willing to give them money for a program that I do not own?
Answer: No F*cking way!
Has it cost me anything no.
Has it cost the company anything just one sale, thats all.
(And for those people that say; Dont like the protection Scheme Dont buy it)
Thanks! Ill take your advice:-)
I guess that all folks!
