New, Fun Band-in-a-Box Enhancements from Norton Music If you liked the Ultimate Pop Rock Fake e-Disk You'll Love this new Ultimate Rock Pop Fake e-Disk * One of our most loved Band-in-a-Box collection since the 1990s has been Norton Music's companion e-disk to Hal Leonard's Ultimate Pop Rock Fake Book. The folks at Hal Leonard published a companion book with a similar name, the Ultimate Rock Pop Fake Book. Reversing the Rock and Pop words so they don't supersede the original. It's a Who's Who of Rock/Pop music. From Elvis Presley, to The Beatles, to Madonna, to Prince, to Taylor Swift, the most important stars of the Rock and Pop music are there. We've been working hard to interpret the almost 550 songs ala Band-in-a-Box and we're proud of our work. All this for less than 8¢ per song Just look at the complete song list and partial artist list here https://www.nortonmusic.com/fake52.htmlThe best of both worlds: As usual, we've assigned a MIDI style and the BiaB robot should suggest a Real-Tracks style for each song. Assigning MIDI is the only way to give you both choices. If you don't have the style assigned, no problem, just substitute one if the styles from your Band-in-a-Box collection. Or be adventurous, and reinterpret the song with a different style of music. Check out the free samples in the song list. It's a Pop/Rock gig in a box! If you purchase the optional Fake Book, you can load the song, open the book, and play and/or sing along. It's your Rock/Pop gig in a box. And since they are in Band-in-a-Box .sgu format, you can rearrange them, change the key, pick a new style, and customize them to fit your musical personality. Windows or Mac - it works on both. Norton Music has been making Band-in-a-Box improvement products since the beginning, when Band-in-a-Box was written in pre-Windows DOS, Mac was in OS-6 and there was even an edition for the Atari computer. Our products have been recommended by the good folks at PG music, and rather than try to replace anything PG does, we add value to your favorite auto-accomplishment program, Band-in-a-Box. If you have Band-in-a-Box, you need this e-disk. --- Instant E-Delivery with VISA, Master Card OR PayPal --- * No they're not physical disks anymore, those days are long gone. They are now instant gratification downloads. I cut the price of my disks up to $5 each and no longer have to charge shipping and handling. And you not only save money, but get your software right away in an environmentally friendly way.

Hey Bob, This looks like fun. However, when I went to the checkout page, I got this: ![[Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=download&Number=31102&filename=Screenshot 2025-07-07 at 6.23.25 PM.png)

Hmm, Try putting the s after http (https://). I pay 10 dollars a month to be secure, and the shopping cart is secure. Sometimes, for some reason unknown to me, the Internet indexes an old page before I added the s to the http.
Or if you are using a bookmark, edit your bookmark to add the pesky little S.
If that doesn't work, let me know, and I'll call tech help at the web host.
Thanks.

Very interesting and confusing, since you are the first and only one to report a problem.
I placed an order for the new e-disk myself, and it went just fine.
Let me try to replicate it.
Would you be so kind as to give me step by step what got you to that screen?
I'd like to get to the bottom of this.
Thanks

Aaaaarrrrggggghhhh.
Mike,
The tech at the shopping cart company insists nothing is wrong, and points out the scores of orders I'm getting with no problems. So he says it must be something wrong with your system or your security settings.
Not being a tech, I have no idea if he is confused and blowing me off, correct, or something in between.
So I have a plan. (1) Let me know in a PM or direct e-mail what you want to order, (2) I'll figure out the price and add an extra discount for your trouble (3) PayPal me the funds and (4) I'll send the software as an e-mail attachment.
Meanwhile, I'll continue to investigate the problem, starting with my webhost, which I don't think would be the source, but it won't hurt to give that a try.

I wonder if Mike is using a VPN, and what happens if the VPN is then disconnected?

Webhost says, "Not our problem"
Shopping cart says, "Customer's problem, perhaps security settings too high"
I say, "I'm not a tech, I rely on you folks to help me."
Is anyone else having the same problem?
