Will Humble Bundle get your money today?
I already use Display Fusion, Acronis and Fences and no need for the others. :X
Most of that software has fully functioning free counterparts, too.

So no HB Halloween Bundle this year? I was hoping for one, but looks like HB missed it this year :/

I was just thinking I needed DOpus, like I used to have on my Amiga back in the day. Handy.

Change those subscription licenses to perpetual ones and you have a deal for Tier #3. As it is now - skip.

Lifetime BitDefender for 15 bucks, when even at their usual discounts it costs almost twice as much/year/device?
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm not expecting to get new versions of any of these subscription-based applications. I just expect my current version to work perpetually and not suddenly stop after 1 year. If I have to enter an annual mortgage payment on software, I'd rather look for something that's free and save the headache.
Specifically for the anti-virus, technically virus definitions can and should work with an old version for much longer than 1 year. This is just too short of a period to be of interest when Windows own anti-virus is free and works well enough (just complement it with common sense and the occasional check at virustotal.com if you have doubt).
BTW, I have no expectation that the VPN will be longer than 1 year, because there are direct running costs for each user, and it's unreasonable to expect the vendor to pay for them indefinitely. This is not really the case with virus definitions, as delivering them to all users (with versions that can technically support them) has negligible cost. They should win my money again by providing attractive new features which would make me upgrade, not by forcing me to pay because time's up and the software just went dead.

It is not exactly the deliverance of the virus definitions that costs money but to keep a lab to identify and block them.
The virus definitions themselves work with older versions of the softwares. You are not paying for the new yearly version of the antivirus and some of them don't even push the new one on users; you are paying to get the new virus databases.

I really like Stardock tweakers and have been stuck with Fences 2 for a while, not really wanting to upgrade. But I guess the time has come. Glad to try out the typer, too, and, maybe, DOpus, but this is exciting enough only to the extent of tier 1 for me.
Can anybody confirm or deny any fine print present on these deals, like keys vanishing if you don't activate them in time? Might even get multiple non-BTAs if there is none.

One year subscription... even for Acronis True Image 2017? D:
Good joke! No buy!

Oh wow, bunch of completely useless programs for me. Guess another bundle I'll skip. I'd buy this just to get more programs on Steam, but since there is only one (not that useful anyway) program for Steam, I'll skip.
Oh well ^_^

Funny thing about DisplayFusion, it is the software I usually advice people to uninstall the second most often after Raptr. It doesn't get along well with games, especially older ones.
BitDefender is a nice touch though, even if I chose Kaspersky at the start of this year (got a 2-year/2-device license for 60 USD).
Also, LastPass is awesome. I am a Premium user, but it is more like a 1 dollar/month donation since I don't really use any premium features. ^^'

Great bundle! Too bad those licenses are only 1 year and/or for new users only...

Is Fences + DeskScapes activation permanent? If so, it's a must buy for me.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well the only cool thing there is Display Fusion, which I already own and use everytime... So no thx...
Also why only 1 year sub? that sucks even more. There are free programs out there who do the same things.

Last time I checked, it has Steam key for Display Fusion.

Be warned, this is only the BitDefender Antivirus, not the firewall and antivirus.

Hi, does anyone knows if LastPass works with existing free accounts? Or do you need to create an entire new account to make use of the HB offer?:)
Comment has been collapsed.
Premium is just an upgrade on an account, so it should work with an existing free one.
Comment has been collapsed.
I was asking cause it says 'new users only'
I am not sure if that means that just existing premium users can't use it, or that even even existing free users can't use it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Bought it, and I can confirm it's only for new registered users. It will shows up error when you try to redeem it if you already have Lastpass account logged in. I've been using Lastpass Free for 5 years now.
Oh well, at least one year VPN is pretty nice.
Comment has been collapsed.
Lastpass, Instant buy. New user only. Crap... no buy then. I already renewed my VPN not that long ago. So I see nothing here for me. To bad about last pass, I'm good till the end of Feb. I would gladly BTA for an extension.
Comment has been collapsed.
Do you think existing free users can make use of the this offer?
Comment has been collapsed.
Don't know, but thats a good question. Its also being asked in the Reddic threads. More then one has submitted support tickets to lastpass asking this. I think we will know in a few days.
Comment has been collapsed.
I have been using Lastpass for years and tried this offer. Yes I can confirm it's only for new registered users, even if you never been Premium before. Such a shame, really.
Comment has been collapsed.
YO, LastPass is like 12$ or eur. Please update if you can

DisplayFusion is the only thing here I'm interested in, but it's not worth as much as it is to me.
Also I refuse to buy subscription based software, so screw most of this bundle.
Fences + DeskScapes seem interesting, I'll have to look into them and the decide if I'll tier one.
Directory Opus 12 Light as seem interesting, but I doubt I'd really use it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Fences looks pretty usefull. I think I might go for tier 1 on this one. And Breevy might be usefull as well (especially on my school laptop. It would be nice not to have to write "private void" all the time for example...).

already free?... when?... any promotion before?...

Well I got a free download for it months ago. A streamer I watch named Cryaotic had a command that gave you a link to the DeskScape site, for users who didn't know how he got animated backgrounds.
