Just lurking thru the forums at planit3d, I found this post by jdw4xp
http://www.download.com/DAZ-Productions/3260-20_4-6286136.html
It's a link to a download.com page where bryce5 and the free figure pack with basic V3, M3, A3 and H3 are for download without having to mess around with the DAZshop, at least V3 isn't avaliable for free at DAZ, anymore. I did it, finally (yes, bryce, too :grin: ), thou I don't think I'll use them a lot. Aiko, maybe...
Be careful, when downloading, there are different files for Win and Mac
