Shouldn't the C:\bb\BBPlugin\Files\Band-in-a-Box DAW Plugin Standalone.exe be installed and a desktop shortcut created even if the Plugin installer is not run during install ?
This way it will get users that don't use or have a DAW so don't install the Plugin Installer to have the Lite version of Biab to try out, as this can be used for live shows also with the "Save State" it will instantly "Load State" SGU and play the song.
Most users would not have a clue that there is a Plugin Standalone or where it is so don't try it out.
Come on guys do a bit of promotion with videos !

In fact it's mentioned only twice in only a single paragraph in the manual.
There really should be a some focus on several good things that come with BiaB and RB. "Artist Perfomance Sets" ... what are they, where are they, how does one use them? In fact the whole "Songs and Lessons" area.

Personally, though, I do dislike that every application seems to want to put icons all over the desktop ... I keep my desktop emply by deleting the lot of them and I use the start menu.

You need some way of letting users know there is a Biab Lite.
I know there is one so I hide my desktop icons easily:
