Because at the time SoftImage was still around, which meant that Autodesk owning 3ds max and maya didn't form a monopoly. Of course, Adobe now owns the defunct SoftImage brand anyway after Avid ran it into the ground.
- zirgs 3y agoAutodesk bought Softimage|XSI and then simply killed it after a few years. It's crazy that they can get rid of their competitors this easily. Another reason why I recommend all 3D artists to learn Blender. Nobody can buy and then kill it off. I'm pretty sure Autodesk would love to do that if they could.
