Zzounds lists a few different versions of this software, two of which are listed at roughly $300 and $500 respectively - what's the difference? Is this a common software package for home recording?
 
The "regular" package is the cheaper one. The XL package includes some extras -- most notably a full version of ReValver (a guitar amp modeler DX plug-in) and Tassman (a DXi - DirectX instrument) and some sample loops. The Tassman is fantastic so it was worth it to me to go with SONAR XL, but so far I have not really used the ReValver plug-in at all, and the freebie loops and SoundFonts and whatever else XL comes with are not extensive enough in my opinion to be worth it on their own.
