TIA,

For DCG products, I wouldn't buy Anything Grooves if you plan on moving to C5, it does some things better than C5 displacement but for most users it's probably not worth getting extra. If you're only using Anything Grows for static tip objects kinds of effects, the Carrara 5 replication tools are a better choice. If you want to animate the tip movement, orientation, fur, hair, etc. it's still a handy tool.
