Check out the thread here which has all the download links. One link also informs you why they are discontinuing MODO. Anyone who knows anything about 3D Software then you will know that modo is a very powerful 3d solution that rivals 3ds max/Maya/Blender etc

Never touched a 3d modeler than blender ... for many years.  Yes, I am not working "in the industry" so I can afford using Blender only ... for me it contains what is needed so yeah, never even thought of going back to 3ds max.

On the other hand it is the commercial software which often puts monetary efforts into new ideas ... ideas other then can use to uhmmmm "get inspired" (people eg say that Blenders simulation quality / solution is not on par with the commercial big players ...).

I can't download anything from Daz3d anymore....I have a really old account (20+ years approximately) that has a tonne of content associated with it - but everytime I try and reconnect with them their software tries to download it all at once onto my local machine which my crappy internet connection (yes I live in Australia) can't handle. So there's a tonne of content I cannot access because their download manager tool can't get it into its mind that I don't want to download all my content, just selected bits of it.

according to this page here:

you should be able to download selectively

@Qube is also a daz / poser user, maybe he can have a look how the software is configurable on his side and assist you there.

Ughh! I feel your pain. I have a ton of stuff also and the download manager just starts downloading all of it regardless if you set it not to.

Not used Daz3D in quite a while but I'm curious as to what the issue could be. I'll backup my Daz Folder and see what happens when I go to download all my old old stuff.
Mac Studio M4 Max ( 14 core CPU - 32 core GPU ), 32GB LPDDR5, 512GB SSD.
Beelink SER7 Mini Gaming PC, Ryzen 7 7840HS 8-Core 16-Thread 5.1GHz Processor, 64GB DDR5 RAM, 2T PCIe 4.0 SSD.
Microsoft Surface Pro 11 ( Snapdragon® X Elite ), 16GB RAM, 512GB SDD.
ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDM OLED 240Hz.

Until the next time.
