Flatfish is a brazen liar. I mentioned writing Autodesk after
finding that the software was being bootlegged. (It may be a
phishing site to get one's credit card number, IMO.) Here is the

Autodesk Maya Unlimited 2009 Win Linux Mac
The award-winning Autodesk Maya software is a powerful,
integrated 3D modeling, animation, visual effects, and rendering
solution. Because Maya is based on an open architecture, all your
work can be scripted or programmed using a well-documented and
comprehensive API (application programming interface) or one of
two embedded scripting languages, the Maya Embedded Language
(MEL) or Python. This level of openness, combined with an
industry-leading suite of 3D tools, enables you to realize your
creative vision for your film, television, game development, and
design projects.

At first I thought it to be a legitimate site as it mentioned
Open Source, whcih I am interested in, but acquaintances pointed
out your website. For a package that costs US $5,000 and one
able to obtain for $25 appears to be software piracy.
