So I upgraded few months back at Magix for $128 Canadian and got the following in addition.
-Coupon for 12 month free usage of the "Website M"web hosting package from Xara Online (value: $23.88).
-Xara X Builder
-Xara All Web Templates

I agree the XaraTemplates bundles and the mediocre Website M offer is very attractive and beats all the usual Magix fluff.
At the moment, there are no bundles packages being offered at all. So now is probably not the time to renew.
If you look at https://www.xara.com/compare-designer-pro/, you see the differences better explained.
The Magix Update Service is currently US$99 (C$128) or a whopping £109, probably all without tax.
The telling part is "Access to new features 4 months after release" for the Magix version. More like 6 months and two releaes a year.
Presently, XPro+ and XDXP are neck and neck for common features.
Xara is now starting out with "Exclusive features"; whatever these might be.
If you have followed TG advice and downloaded locally all your on-line assets then waiting "4 months" until a better offer comes along might not hurt, apart form the nag screens and links.

just got an email 'from ana' as it happens; new feature in pro+ copy page from one doc to another....

I have too but the features are for Xara Cloud Pro not Pro+.
The additions are for v100. The most useful one is the Preview addition.
The 50% LIFETIME discount is no longer being promoted.
Also note the total lack of Xara staff engagement within TG; we've become a backwater!

I gathered it was cloud from context, did not make any sense for pro+, the email [unless I missed it] just took it for granted you would know...
@iamtheblues
true enough bob, but some small things like paste replacing selection etc, and not so small like smart groups [are they in ver 5, can't remember], plus up to date PDF import/export are worth it for me
hands up all those who knew soft groups are not just for websites

it means you can group things without changing the stacking order, simple as that to me; worth its weight in gold dust

Acorn,
Can you explain a little more about PDF's being set to show and hide separate layers? I thought that if I hide layer in Xara and then made a PDF then that layer was not imported into the PDF. So I am not following how you are doing this.
Thanks
