Buying from store other than Magix

I have a couple questions about a purchase of Movie Studio 15 Platinum from Amazon. Do you get the same extras as you would buying from Magix because it appears it is only good for Movie Studio and DVD Architect. No Sound Forge, no ReSpeedr.

Another confusing aspect was being given the option to download Music Maker from the Magix installer. I see it can be activated. Should I have a key for this or how functional is it without a key? I checked on my account with Amazon under their Games and Software and only found the two keys for the main products. This is very unlike when I bought Movie Studio 14 directly from Magix and was emailed many keys for the main and extra software.

I'm feeling like I shouldn't have bought from Amazon though I saved $10 from the price here. It is not a huge deal since I bought this for a user in our organization who is only going to make the simplest of videos and doubt the other software will add much value to what they are doing on an occasional basis. Just curious if I should have received more software than I did or that's what I get for the lesser price.

I have registered the software on magix.com so know the keys are good.

As you've noticed the offers from Magix may differ from what other sellers offer.

Music Maker now has a free version. See the version comparison tables for prices and content.

I tried the free music maker and found it totally useless and removed it.

** I'm also want to buy VMSP from amazon once the price will drop.
