In past years, you would get a CD with the program included on it. You would sign in or create an account to get updates, which you would get when it was convenient, or when doing final checks.
Everything was on your computer, instead of cloud based. This is the direction Intuit has gone.
After everything was finally over, for the Premier version it would cost nearly $90 with the CD. I'm sorry, I don't care how good it is, it's not worth paying 50% more for TurboTax vs. H&R Block for the same capabilities!
