I have to agree with Jon. I avoid software companies if I find they want to put a bunch of foistware and crapware on my computer. The marketing stupidity of it offends me, and it feels disrespectful and insulting to me. If any Magix decision makers come here, I hope they make note of it. I haven't upgraded lots of software that's still quite usable precisely because I'm sick and tired of all the garbage that gets foisted down our throats here in the United States.
