Is This For Real? "Save 80% on Anime Studio Pro"
Is this real, or is it spam? I just received an e-mail from the following address:
smithmicro@reply.digitalriver.com
That says, "Save 80% on Anime Studio Pro and earn bonus items-the more people buy, the more you get!"
The e-mail encourages me to "Pass It On." A "380 Value ONLY $39.99."
It says "If 100 buy" "Everyone gets Bonus Item 1: Anime Content Holiday House and Snow Person." "If 300 Buy" "Everyone gets Bonus Item 1 plus Bonus Item 2: Anime Content Collections 1 & 2." "If 500 Buy Everyone gets Bonus Item 1 and 2 plus Bonus Item 3: Stuffit Deluxe 2011 with 3-months of SendStuffNow.
The link to click for purchases is to an http://dr.bluehornet.com/ address.
If it's truly from Smith Micro, I'll take advantage of it and pass it on. But, I want to make sure I'm not giving my info to a spammer and passing it on for others to be ripped off as well.
Any advice?

Just realized that it probably is real, because it's for Anime Studio Pro VERSION 6. They're being very tricky about the whole thing. There's no mention of it being version 6 in the subject line. You have to look at the image in the e-mail to see that it's version 6 on the box, and it's mentioned in only one other small-print location. If it's real, it's still a good deal. But, I'm currently using Version 5 and not interested in purchasing version 6.
I purchased ASP6 for $34.78 from Tiger Direct including shipping. That was back on October 3rd or so. I had always wanted to try AS and that special price hooked me. Upgrading to 7 from that would be pretty inexpensive too, but all the bad things I'm hearing about 7 put me off.
I'm just a hobbyist, but after playing with the tutorials and browsing through the forums I'm glad I have the pro version.

Bifocals are both wonderful and a PITA.

digital download mac OSX only?
Does anyone know whether the digital download includes a PC download? The link to this sale shows the download option as Mac OSX only, and not a windows download.
thanks,
James.

Did anyone who purchased with this special deal receive an email regarding the additional "bonus" items?
--> Check your email on November 5, 2010 to claim your bonus item!
I purchased and received an email about my order being shipped, but no follow-up regarding the additional bonus items. Not that they're any great shakes, but a bonus is a bonus.
I also see that the promotional pricing is still available, if you go here.
