    Benefit of downloading – you don’t wait or pay for shipping.

    Benefit of shipping – you get a box and discs.

    I’d download it.

    So I would still get Sorensen squeeze and all the othe programs that are in the box?

    This is really the best forum and source of info. Avid should pay those who reply here as their own customer service blows.

    That said…thanks!

    Yes, you still get all the third party softwaare. Starting with MC6 the third party software is part of the download. Prior to 6 you only got the 3rd party stuff when you bought the box.

    Note that Boris no longer comes with Media Composer, download or box. It’s a separate purchase unless ypu upgrade/crossgrade to Symphony. It comes with Symphony (download or box).
