Oh, and for anyone who says no Mac users want Microsoft Office, just refer them to Amazon's bestseller list. Looking at the lists, it's reasonable to ask if Adobe or Microsoft would want to compete with Apple in the Mac App Store. Six of the top 12 Mac App Store titles are from Apple. From Apple: FaceTime Pages iPhoto Xcode and iMovie.
Top-5 from Amazon: Office Mac Home and Student 2011 Office Mac Home and Business 2011 Learn Spanish Final Draft 8 and Adobe Photoshop Elements 9. Amazon has more big developers, while Mac App Store has more titles from smaller developers and more Apple applications among the best sellers. The top Mac downloads from each store tells a story. Hey, look ma, no lost DVDs or license numbers!
#OFFICE FOR MAC 2011 DOWNLOAD SOFTWARE#
Amazon's pricing is aggressive.Īs with Windows software downloads, Amazon provides customers with a "Software Library" from which they can redownload applications or games (the Mac games store is new, too, by the way). I could go on, but you surely get the point. Boxed version is less than the download from Amazon - $168.28. Final Draft 8 download is $172.99 from Amazon and $249 from the developer. Adobe charges $149.99, although there is a $30 mail-in rebate.
Boxed version is $117.28 from Amazon and $149.99 from Microsoft.Īmazon sells Photoshop and Premiere Elements 9 Bundle for $119.99 as download or boxed. Microsoft's online store charges $149.99 for the digital download. Amazon offers Office Home and Student 2011 for $115. Perhaps it's no coincidence the software selection largely aligns with the boxed versions also sold by Amazon. Amazon's Mac shop competes in the strangest of ways - offering the big-name digital downloads you can't now find at the Mac App Store.
