I hope they don't !!! again, if they belong to the same owner there wont be
any need to innovate as is been in the case of maya and max after they belong
to autodesk, there was no need to compete against each other so it happen what
is happening right now. killing apps.
as long there is competition, companies will innovate, products will be cheaper
for the consumer, will be more market, I will shift your opinion for a
better world.
lets ask autodesk to make a good compositing app. oh wait they DID! autodesk
composite before was toxik, and same story happen.
I really hope they don't buy it.
(sorry been a little sarcastic, is late and I am stuck in a project LOL...)

could see ADSK buying Foundry for Nuke\Mari\Katana. ADSK doesn’t have similar
toolsets and that would be reason enough to shore up their tool chain. That
would be the final pieces to their monopoly. From:

Subject: Re: Lets Hope Autodesk Buys the Foundry! It's owned by an
investment group. They sell in a particular hurry ESPECIALLY when something is
going well. You sell at peak value shortly after a round of re-valuing
purchases and hype, when cash value is high for returns, and earnings prospects
are high to entice buyers. As for who'll be buying, I'd be surprised if it
was AD, but can't rule it out, a media group or an unexpected games-side player
or something like that seems more likely though. Or maybe DS will decide to
piss in AD's cornflakes buying it, but I doubt they are willing to shell out
200-250M pounds for such an unfamiliar patents package and software they have
no cross-sales potential or sales network to merge and reduce in. On Tue,
