No worries with that. Just update DAZ Studio and carry on. You only go Premier if you sign up for that. I updated yesterday with no issues or no pushes to sign up for Premier!

It puts me in mind of that joke where the lady of the house buys a new cooker for £600 in the sales because the sale price was £250 below RRP whilst not realising that she could have saved £600 by not buying it in the first place! There is an old saying which reads that, "You get what you pay for", and in this case it would seem to transpire that what you are paying for could contain quite a lot which you don't really want or need. Having watched the YouTube video's I mentioned earlier I can only advice that you wait and watch given that a number of the 'extra' offered appear to have problems with execution!

Thanks.
I have been considering getting back into doing some 3D and have been paying my DAZ+ over the past several months. (Usually only getting the freebies and the occasional 'gotta have this' item when at a good price point.
But not interested in this 'subscription' approach.
I have the Plus but won't upgrade to Premier as it's too steep. In my earlier days as a content junkie this would have been an instant yes but I'm no longer a junkie and make stuff on my own for personal use and sometimes for the 'Rosity store so Premier would be money down the drain for me but I do like price cuts and allot of the time there are some good things deeply cut in price having the Plus but they took away allot of the ways to pay. I was paying every 3 months like 27.00 but now it's just monthly for 10 bucks so it's basically 3 bucks more. No biggie.

Paying monthly is a flat, "No." It's why I took the plunge and upgraded to the latest Poser. If they pull the pay to play model, that would be the impetus to go back to Poser. AI is now in the workflow in any case and Poser get the job done going that route just as well as DS and with no monthly so.....

At least that's easier now Dana. Moving to a monthly subscription means you don't have to wait until your renewel date, or spend all that money! Just click on the appropriate membership and click on 'cancel'! Your membership will finish at the end of the current month!

It's sad for me...I do like using the $6 coupon to get something off my wishlist. It usually pays for itself, using those coupons. But, not if it costs me $120. Even with the monthly and weekly freebies, I don't know if it will be worth it. I'm not getting any younger. I gave up on Photoshop after CS2. At least DAZ Studio is free. If they start charging for that, I use what I have or I'm out altogether.
