The thing about these types of bundles is that not all the apps are needed. In your case, you only need Sound Studio which was included in the MacUpdate Bundle, which ended today. ~Daniel Steve,

A strong financial software package would be nice as well. I do agree that there should be some big hitters as well. CS3 may be a stress but there are other quality programs out there that could be substituted. Since the bundles are for a limited time only, the software companies would be looking at less profit per unit but they would be benefitting from volume sales. Ben Feldman alluded to the fact that if they sell at a low price now then others are going to want the low price as well later. Of course they will,but if they did not take advantage of the special offer then they miss out. This happens every day in the marketplace with all kinds of products.

More realisticly, the bundle could include Coda, MarsEdit, VisualHub, iShowU, and Yojimbo. VMware might do it since Parallels was in MacUpdate’s bundle.

Make a newer, better version of iMovie, and sell iMovie 08 separately. There are a lot of possibilities on how to do this, but this is just what I would like to see, and I know won't happen. ~Daniel Spencer,

FCE will never be on there. Apple software is too good for a low price bundle like this. The only one i would even concider is VMware Fusion. Since Paralells is in the MAc Update bundle i would guess that the next version may contain this. -SpencerC ummm, i dont think this will happen, i bet when adobe releases CS4, they would CONCIDER offering CS2 to the bundle.

If you are talking about the Mac community, you have to reach out to all of them. Just adding small apps that people that want bigger apps like Final Cut doesn't help them. I just want to reach out to everyone. Add some small apps, and then bigger apps. Not necessarily Adobe CS3, but something along the lines. ~Daniel. Michael,

Also, there is not a single person whom I can name off the top of my mind who even owns Photoshop Elemnts. IMHO, Adobe's, Apple's, and VM Ware's products are priced accordding to the market they each approach. Pro photographers, who spend thousands on camera bodies and lenses, can quite easily afford Adobe Photoshop CS3 for the 600 or dollars that it costs. Home, users on the other hand, would even't know what a filter is in regard to Photoshop's work envinronment. Someone who owns a FlipVideo may not have any interest whatsoever in such apps as Final Cut Express; and certainly only podcasters, musicians and other recording artists would have interest in sound editing apps (even GarageBand). @Daniel: Most consumers don’t want to buy Adobe CS3 in any edition.
