Sadly the CD only has the beta version of the program on it ... so you must download the updates immediately and the program needs constant updates which need to be downloaded. Thus the CD version is really the exact same thing as the actual download.
The ONLY benefit you get from the CD is that is has the installation files for both Mac & Win on the CD to begin with ... when you get a download you only get one version ... however if you ever need the other all you have to do is call.
