Get $500 of My Digital Studio product from Stampin' Up! for $20!


We've been working on some big changes to the My Digital Studio product line, and we just can't contain ourselves anymore.  Starting today:
  1. We've changed the name of the software from MDS 2 (and MDS 2+) to MDS.
  2. We've lowered the price.
What has been known as MDS 2+ is now $19.95 US.

Other information:
  • MyDigitalStudio.net is currently under construction as we make all of the changes. Just keep in mind that you may see outdated information for awhile.
  • We will remove the My Digital Studio Catalog at the end March from MyDigitalStudio.net. If you would like to keep of copy of it, go grab it before then. As we announced last fall, we have not been maintaining this file and since it so outdated, we feel like it's time to delete it.
  • We understand that when a price changes after you have made a recent purchase it can be frustrating. If you purchased the software at the old price from March 1 to March 17, 2013, the following will be added to your Download Manager by Wednesday, March 20:

Q&A

Q: Why is Stampin’ Up! making these changes now?
A: In preparation to launch My Digital Studio in our South Pacific market, we feel like now was the perfect time to simplify the product offering and lower the price.

Q: Why is the name of the software changing?
A: This is one of the ways that we decided to simplify the software offering and position ourselves for future growth. Using the previous naming convention would have made it difficult to grow the product line in the way that we plan.

Q: Why is the price lower for the software?
A: It’s simple! We want to help you get the software out to your customers and feel that at this lower price point more customers will join in all the digital fun.

Q: What is included with the MDS software?
A: It includes over $500 US worth of digital content. It is the same content that was previously included with MDS 2+. You will notice that we are not promoting the value of the content as much as we have in the past. We feel as though the software is an incredible value, especially at this new, lower price and do not feel it is as necessary to promote the value of the content.

Q: Can I still buy the software on a disc and as a download?
A: Yes, you (and your customers) can buy the software as a disc (item 130647) or a download (item130646). Keep in mind that the disc will say MDS 2+ and will need to be updated after installed in order to get the latest version of the software.

Q: Will the trial software still be available?
A: Yes, we will continue to offer the 30-day free MDS Trial. Your customers can download it (item 130910) or you may buy the MDS Trial Disc 10 Packs (item 132919) as a supply item. Keep in mind that the Trial Discs will say MDS 2 Trial until the current inventory is depleted. Remind your customers to check for updates when they install the software.

Q: Why are you removing the multimedia feature?
A: We found that this feature was underutilized and it was the cause of many issues for users. Some of the benefits for removing it include:
·         Reduction of installation and startup errors.
·         Increased software stability with improved technology.
·         Better compatibility with current and future operating systems.
·         Makes the software ready for future feature enhancements.
·         Allows for automatic software updates.
·         No longer need QuickTime to run the software.

Q: If I have the original My Digital Studio software, how can I get the free upgrade to the new MDS software?
A: We will post information about how to get the upgrade for free as soon as it is available.

Q: What if I recently purchased the software at the old price?
A: For customers and demonstrators who purchased the software at full price from March 1 to March 17, we will add previously selected downloads (see above) to their Download Manager in their customer accounts by Wednesday, March 20.
 
Q: Can I still get support for the original My Digital Studio software?
A: Since we are providing a free upgrade to the new software, we no longer feel it is necessary to provide support for the original software. Please be sure to let your customers know that they should get the upgrade for free.

Q: Can I still get the MDS 2 software?
A: In an effort to simplify the software options, we will no longer offer the MDS 2 software disc (item 130645) and download (item 130644).
