Another small benefit of buying the package, instead of individual programs
is that Scott sends you one email message with all of the passwords. No
looking around for the email that relates to just one program.

Absolutely, when you do the math per program, it's well worth it to just buy

the whole thing, I know I did several years ago. No upgrades to buy either, 
if there's an upgrade, you can just download it and go.
