Hello Bob
If you have the 2018 Ultra pak (includes all realtracks) then to upgrade to 2019 Ultra pak, you would just buy the Plus pak at $99, so maybe that is where you get that figure from.
Of course if buying 2019 you could also buy the addon 49 bonus pak for $49 as well.
As regards Xtra Style paks 1-6 , 6 being the newest one I do see that they offer the lot for $159 extra.
Are you 100% sure you have never bought any of these in the past?
Maybe its worth your while if putting in a large order to contact Live help direct.
They might be able to work out some sort of a discount for you if its a really large order. I really don't know but its worth a try.

Dave,
Next time Live help is open (the top right of this webpage), use live Chat to ask sales staff at Pg Music. The Xtra Sytles have been on special a few times over the last two or three years. Whether or not they are on special right now, I don't know.
Regards, Noel

There seems to be an incorrect link with the online store. I've reported it. Both packages ($29 Pak6 or $159 Paks 1-6) take you to the same product.
BIAB & RB2024 Win.(Audiophile), Sonar Platinum, Cakewalk by Bandlab, Izotope Prod.Bundle, Roland RD-1000, Synthogy Ivory, Kontakt, Focusrite 18i20, KetronSD2, NS40M Monitors, Pioneer Active Monitors, AKG K271 Studio H'phones

99$ for 1-6 xtra styles must have been changed. And now the link is wrong indeed.
In the current situation, If you want to buy 1-6, now you can spent 158 (yes 1 dollar less then advertised) You scroll down to the pack 1-5 and add 6 seperately wich makes 158$...

PG Music's reply to an email..................
There was an error on our webpage that showed that package advertised for the wrong price. It has since been corrected - the Xtra Styles PAK 1-6 is currently on sale for $159.00 US (reg price $194 US)
wish I'd ordered it then but I'd probably be updating my BIAB 2019 constantly until the first round of bugs is fixed
will wait until later in the month to splash out on everything

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
