Allume ships StuffIt Deluxe 11

Allume Systems today released StuffIt Deluxe 11, the latest version of its data compression, access, and management tool for Mac OS X. Version 11, now a Universal Binary, features an Archive Manager for quick, convenient easy access to all archives and the ability to automatically group related files with a single click using (StuffIt Collections). In addition, it offers new search tools, including support for Spotlight, allowing users to search through archives located on CDs, DVDs, networks, external hard drives or other “offline” locations. StuffIt also bring support for Strong Encrypted Zip Support (256-bit AES), improved preview image thumbnails, better Mac OS X integration (Automator support) and improved performance, including multiple processor/core support and 20% faster compression.

StuffIt enables users to create and expand files using StuffIt, ZIP and TAR formats, can optionally protect archives using file encryption, and offers a variety of backup features as well as the ability to burn archives across multiple CDs and DVDs. StuffIt Deluxe 11 requires Mac OS 10.4 or later and is priced at $80 ($30 upgrade). StuffIt Expander 11 is available as free download.

Yawn.

While the UB is nice for Expander, I have no reason to ever use Stuffit to compress anything except for use in Classic.

$80...what exactly is their target market here? Everyone uses ZIPs, tar.gz or compressed disk images now.
