Do I need 2017 for the Bonus 49-Pak?

Do I need 2017 for the Bonus 49-Pak?

Yes, and so it is also Windows only for now.

I’m a little confused; the email I received said that there are an additional 202 RealTracks – Double the usual number however when I looked at the differences between the last few versions on the website it says that BIAB 2015 added 300 and 2016 added 200.

Am I missing something?

Before last year, the usual number was around 100.

But the website (http://www.pgmusic.com/bbwin.packages.ultra.htm) says

BIAB 2014 had 1,500+
BIAB 2015 had 1,800+
BIAB 2016 had 2,000+
BIAB 2017 has 2,200+

Are these figures not right?

We usually add 101 in the Xmas release. Last year we added 201 for the first time. This year it's 202. So it's typically 101. Some years we had a mid year 0.5 release with 101 RT which was sold separately.

Ah, right; now I understand!
