If you are going to be using the standard deduction then Basic should be fine and with the elimination of some of the traditional deductions such as Business Expenses it is very difficult to get to the numbers needed to itemize. If you are itemizing I do recommend Deluxe as the "Its Deductible" tool is great for Charitable donations (I have used Deluxe for years but I also need the State as I live in NY). Also included is the Audit Risk Meter, but mine has always said low and I still got audited last year (State not Federal). I don't know where you are buying it though because deluxe should be $50 not $80, Premier is under $80 at most retailers, try Target or Costco for the disc versions.
