As much as I enjoy supporting SOE, I don't throw money at them for the sake of doing so. I would only buy something off the player studio if I liked it. Just as I do so for the items that are created by SOE.

Can I say both? I'm all for supporting it and I'm pretty confident there will be something created that I will like. I don't think anyone will just close their eyes and purchase something just to support the player studio itself.

It's a combination of both.

I'll get stuff off of Player Studio if it is good, and I wont get it if it looks bad, but I'll show preference to things from my outfit or my server more.

I would not buy anything just to support the system, the product is worth it or it isn't. That said, I expect that the community will spend more effort making something perfect or unique than a business could ever financially justify. I would be really surprised if I didn't spend more on player created assets, than Sony created assets.

Pretty much this. I don't have stock in SOE but I do want to support this game via the SC I've purchased. There will be some very high quality work that comes out of this studio and I expect I'll be buying some very shiny stuff. Plus I know some of the guys in my outfit plan on making some shit for the players studio and I want to see what they can make.

If something is cool I will buy it, regardless of it's source.
