Starry night v 6

Hi, to anyone who has experience with Starry Night. I am thinking of buying the downloadable version of Starry Night version 6 plus a couple of modules. The basic download is about $27aud and each module about $7aud so not expensive. Question is, i already run CDC version 3 so would Starry Night offer any advantage over CDC; would I be "upgrading" by buying Starry Night.
Your thoughts and advice much appreciated
Cheers
Malcolm

Hi Malcom, I have tried most of the leading planetarium programs and found Starry night pro plus 6 to be the most user friendly program to run with excellent graphics though it has given me some occasional issues running it with EQ MOD to drive my mount, otherwise it is brilliant.
I have never used any earlier versions of SN but I am sure it will be a big leap ahead.


Cheers Daniel.

I bought the box version of SN 6 and it rocks. No crashing like earlier versions (and has more features) and much friendlier than Sky, worth the money IMO.
