$45.  I didn’t see a cheaper option (like $1 as in the past).

I noticed that as well. I wonder if that's just a change for this bundle, or whether HB is going to start doing that going forward.

Maybe the new Magic owners are trying to establish a higher floor for the products to increase the perceived value.

I’ve purchased the previous versions because they were so cheap, but $45 is higher than the impulse buy threshold for me.

Yeah good point. I hadn't considered that. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.

Really good value bundle, but for people using them as cheap upgrades etc. they may just miss that sweet spot. Will depend on how their sales go I guess and whether they choose to recalibrate a lower price.

Just curious, for the lazy  before I go try to find enough info:

--do the things in this bundle, especially the video editing software, require internet access, activations, random "validation checks", etc etc?

 

Basically, I want to know if I can use them on an entirely offline computer system, and be able to just reinstall them without worries about the company being around in the future, etc. 

 

I cannot use a tool that requires internet access, because if something is ever wrong with the internet anywhere between me and...wherever, or the program somehow unsyncs itsefl from it's license management,it will stop me from doing my work.  We all know this never happens, of course.  But just in case, I require software that doesn't do this. 

 

I am embarking on a new creative process project, a Drywater Mars webisode series, and the tools in the bundle could help with that enough to be worth spending this small amount of money on them. 

 

 But only if the companies providing them actually trust their users, and don't do what Bandlab products (and many other companies) do even for free software.
