Blender is open source, how can you "acquire" it -.-

>> No.663691

>>663657
Easy. Buy the Blender Foundation, and, boom!, you got the copyright to the whole Blender codebase, and can now turn it into another closed Autocuck software, while still pushing it further than any remaining open source fork.

>> No.663697

>>663691
>and, boom!

Blender foundation is financed by EU-countries(to few)/private donations.. the main idea behind it is to use free licenses. i think you can buy some Blender licenses but not the Foundation. that will be pretty instant death as soon it come out you can buy or sell it.

But Blender already bought Autodesk in 2017.

The people at Autodesk are smart. They wouldn't make people pay outrageous prices for a shitty open source product that's only appeal is being free.

Just saying that they could, not that they would. I seriously doubt Autodesk is concerned at all about Blender. It simply doesn't meet the requirements of their customers.

Then someone would just take whatever the last open source version was and fork it. Then there would be a free blender and a paid Autodesk blender. This has happened with other software historically.

Sure, with Autodesk Blender being years ahead of the open-source one.

But this is fantasy. They have Maya, why would they want to start their own flavor of Blender?
