Forum regulars will laugh at you or get angry for asking this but the truth is - if Sansar is successful, of COURSE it will replace SL Sansar is meant to be a next gen, high end evolved concept - why bother with it if it isn't better than SL? LL wont admit it but any business with a great and a mediocre product will dump the mediocre one sooner rather than later Of course they won't say they're going to ditch SL before the new product's out...do you think they want to commit commercial suicide? The only way SL will continue beyond 2018 is if Sansar fails...and that's debatable. So many companies are getting involved in VR now that Sansar will have to be VERY strong to beat off the competition. A lot of developments until 2020 could render SL redundant. It's just the way technology works. Things change, old tech becomes obsolete, ditch it and move on...
