Marc,

You didn't mention which Band-in-a-Box package you purchased. The Band-in-a-Box and RealBand programs are the same in all the packages, the difference is the amount and type of accessory content. The content packages from largest to smallest are Audiophile, UltraPAK / Ultra+ PAK, MegaPAK and ProPAK.

The Audiophile has all the RealTrack package content in both WMA & WAV file formats.
The UltraPAK and Ultra+ PAK has all the RealTrack package content in WMA file format. The + are additional music theory programs.

The MegaPAK has about 1/3rd the RealTrack package content as the Ultra and Audiophile packages.

The ProPAK has about 1/10th the RealTrack package content as the Ultra and Audiophile packages.

Note 1: I keep stating package content. In addition to the package content there are additional content items such as bonus RealTracks and XtraStyles that are not part of any of the packages above.

Note 2: I did not compare other content such as midi styles, midi SuperTracks or loops. Most users are initially attracted to RealTracks. +++ HERE +++ is a full comparison.
