I can't see autodesk killing off arnold as they have no competing products. 
Maybe the push towards cloud rendering will put off some customers though.

God I am glad I left this industry two years after Autodesk acquired Softimage. 
They make everything worse and are now off to kill another product (and don't 
tell me that won't happen...).

Betreff: Re: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle
Frederic, I am sure you mean well, but I actually try learning from the 
history, which is: Autodesk doesn't care.

Hi Arthur,

Since I'm the developer of HtoA, that was my first question when we got briefed 
by Marc Stevens of Autodesk when we got disclosed, and his answer was a clear 
yes. They want more people to use Arnold, on any platform.

Thus the development for the non-Autodesk products will continue as well 
(Houdini, C4D, Katana).

It will be fine guys, Autodesk do not have any competing product so it actually 
may be a good thing.
