Alias pwned by Autodesk

Not mocking the situation... but making light of it for sure.
Autodesk Aquires Alias. The big Tripple A!
Lemme sum this up....
Autodesk builds many products, most notably(to myself) 3Ds Max. While Alias does Maya. 3Ds Max and Maya are both 3D Modeling tools. 3Ds Max is mainly used in the video game industry, while Maya is mainly used in the Film industry. Though both work either way really, ones better in areas the other isn't as good in.
Whats this mean? NOTHING! They claim this won't change anything, that they don't plan on changing any future releases of either product, but that kind of promise never holds as it's..... well it's not a promise.
Though I can see some prices getting even steeper sometime in the near future unless these other packages force them to keep the prices down. IE: XSI gaining much popularity being only as low as $500 whereas 3Ds Max and Maya being currently $3000+
