Hi Artur >Regardles of what I wrote above, I can't explain why I still believe that something can change :-)
Personally I dont have any wish for anything to change in the direction your post speaks of. I have no need for an app that is the pipeline favourite of ILM and just about any other Cecil B. De Mille type VFX "cast of thousands" studio. I have no ambition to be a pipeline component in some mega-VFX "blockbuster" that had a massive twenty seconds of fame on the silver screen ... so I have no need to be top of the heap with Autodesk et al, type apps and plugins. RS for me, is better termed a "boutique app" but that description might be local to my country's use of the term "boutique". It is an excellent generalist app that has a steep learning curve (for me it did) but is all that I need. More than all I need. It does not have the social chat thing for groupies nor glossy in-yer-face "next generation" (an absurd term if ever there was one) brand packaging everywhere you look. And I'm happy not to be paying for that kind of rubbish. In fact I wouldn't bother. It depends exactly on what your needs are I suppose :-) N.
