 A very good deal!Jul 03, 2010
By Courtney Adams

I bought this not sure if the "old version" would work for renewing my exsisting individual account. I entered the code and it worked perfectly. For this discounted price I was able to renew my mobile me and upgrade to the family pack at the same time. A great deal!

A great value -- especially if you share the costs!Nov 11, 2009
By stuffgeeekswant-dot-com
For a little bit more than a single-user MobileMe account you get 4 additional MobileMe accounts... these are "junior" accounts only in the sense that they have 5GB of storage vs. 20GB. Otherwise they're identical to the single-user MobileMe (and, yes, the primary account on the Family Pack still gets 20GB).
MobileMe has come a long way in the 8 years since its debuted and is finally delivering great value. If you have an iPhone, the Find Your Phone feature is worth it by itself. But there's tons of other stuff-- syncing, a great email service (with the best webmail interface out there), easy file sharing (with a free iPhone client for accessing your file), easy photo sharing, and more.
If you split the costs 5 ways this becomes very affordable and even more worth it.

This is how you should be renewing/purchasing MobileMeSep 17, 2010
By solarbean
If you didn't know this already, these "old versions" of Mobile Me are simply the old boxes, and are no different than purchasing direct from Apple. There are codes in these boxes that give you the fully featured, fully current MobileMe experience at significantly lower prices.
The only negative aspect of this method is that you have to wait for the code to ship to you. If you are just starting a MobileMe account, and don't need it immediately, this is your best choice. If you are renewing and plan ahead (by ordering this a few weeks before you're set to expire), this is the best choice. If your current MobileMe expires tomorrow, this won't help you.

 Better price at Amazon than from AppleOct 01, 2009
By Rocket J Squirrel

I don't understand the reason that the price for Apple software should be anything other than rock-bottom at the Apple Online Store, but I was surprised to find that I could get a better price through Amazon for a renewal of my MobileMe family pack. Purchase was painless, and the product was delivered as advertised.

Use Family Pack to Combine Two Individual Accounts and Save MoneyMar 25, 2010
By Freddie D. Cox
"fearoflemmings"
My wife has had an active .me (.mac) account for years now. I had an accout too, but had not used it in years. I just couldn't justify spending almost $200 a year for two accounts, since I had been using a dell computer.
But I just got a new MacBook Pro (yeah!), so I wanted to get my .me account active.
I went to my wife's active account, and selected upgrade. Upgraded to a family pack, then added my old expired account. Because they pro-rate the upgrade it was only $21.52 to upgrade and now have two active accounts. BUT this only worked because my account was expired. If I had an active account, I would have had to let it expire before being able to add it to the family pack.
