<description><![CDATA[I can't speak for Muvizu... only they know their game plan and reasons behind their pricing.  But I can speculate, and here's the only thing that makes sense to me: <br/>  <br/> The niche of 3D graphic animation is really two different markets. The first market is between all the different companies that sell similar products (MAYA, DAZ, iClone, Poser, Muvizu, etc. )  Each of these companies appeals to a different demographic with different budgets. <br/>  <br/> The second market is in add-ons.  If you can get people in the door and get them used to the product, then you have a pretty good shot at selling them content packs. As an entry-level product, Muvizu is positioned to put a lot of active users on the ground, and therefore equally well positioned to sell lots of add-ons. EVERYBODY can afford Muvizu! Imagine a user base that consists of over a million active users... highly possible with a reasonably priced product that has global appeal in the information age!  <br/>  <br/> In the same way that the old razor blade manufacturers used to practically give away their razors so they could sell you the blades that fit them, Muvizu makes a little on each license they sell, but hopefully will offset that on future sales of content.   <br/>  <br/> This would explain why all the new characters don't come with lots of accessories... I figure that eventually we'll have an opportunity to buy more accessories . I could be wrong. But I think that explanation explains a lot of what we're seeing]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I bought Muvizu several years ago when it went from Beta testing to commercial for  £75.00. Few months later the price was cut in half  and now I see the price cut in half even further. After more than 40 years of dealing with software that are "here today and gone tomorrow", I can easily see a pattern that indicates either a major upgrade pending or a simple "abandon-ware", or even a possible total disappearance of this product.  <br/> Correct me if I'm wrong but I hope that there is a major upgrade in the horizon rather then the other options.]]></description>
