I haven't put it through its paces, but I do know the Modo renderer is more than capable. I think most requests of this kind come from familiarity. VRay users want to keep using VRay, because they're familiar with it, and want to hit the ground up and running. I totally understand that. However, for those working OOTB, I think Modo will prove up to the task. I'll have to try it out myself... Soon :-).
