Software bundles can be a great way to acquire useful programs at a good price. On the other hand, they sometimes disappoint. Here we offer hints on what can be good or bad about them.

History

MacHeist and MUPromo became popular in the late 2000s, offering fixed bundles of Apple Mac software from various developers for a fixed price. (MUPromo is a special feature of MacUpdate.com, a popular software review website.) Bundles typically include one or two well-known programs along with some lesser-known and some little-known.
