I've received the invite to demo Chaos Player but had a couple of questions. Does this mean PDPlayer is to be discontinued and phased out, will this affect my ability to continue using it in the future in any way?
I'm all for innovation, glancing at the new Chaos Player, it looks great, however not to rain on the parade but I have very little, as in zero interest in subscriptions for software, I know this is the shift in the entire software industry but as Adobe has shown, it's does not benefit the user other than lighter pockets. Sadly, I saw there was no perpetual license available for Chaos Player and quickly lost interest to even install and try out after downloading.
If there will be a perpetual license option I will almost certainly buy a license for the new player, unfortunately it's a pass if it's ultimately subscription only as it's not much of a value for a sequence player even if it's the mother of all sequence players.Why not include the new player with V-Ray licenses as yet another extreme value added benefit of going with Chaos over other solutions... yes, I have very unconventional and unpopular thoughts regarding revenue streams.
p.s.I love Chaos products but I do not love subscriptions whatsoever!
