The CD is the same as the download. Except the CD has both the Windows and Mac programs on it. If you buy the download you have to be sure to get the right one.
Yes you can prepare and efile a state return for each federal return. If you have more than 5 federal/state you can print and mail the rest.
FYI - if you are doing returns for family and someone has the same name initial as you or your spouse. There is a problem saving returns if 2 returns use the same initials, one will overwrite the other. So you have to be sure to save the returns with names completely different to keep them apart. Don't use the default name given by the program. Go up to File-Save As and give it a unique name.
