Al,
Best read up on the offer direct from Xara. There is a 14 day trial for the new Pro+ (includes Cloud) where a member of TG gets a 50% year one discount on the new package:
https://www.xara.com/xara-cloud-plus/new-bundle/ The voucher code is something like TALKGRAPHICS. I'd check this out first.

All very new last week, but I think it means buying WD from Magix will give you a perpetual licence but no future upgrades. Personally, I'm almost persuaded, as the Magix annual update service is (as I read it) coming to an end.
You can therefore download the real deal for 14 days from Xara and check it out; not cheap though!!
