Autodesk is not a "nice" company to deal with - but well, The Foundry is not nicer with Modo/Mari for Indie, so well.
Still, things seem to evolve at Autodesk's : Fusion 360 is a really nice industrial design modeler tool and it's free for... well, nearly everything that's not commercial, or starting startup.
What I hope is that people will keep on realizing that in those space, the price is out of range for all amateurs - and that it cost them nothing to let them play with it. That's a luxury hardware tool maker envy us...
