Ask PowerPage: Final Cut Pro Upgrade to Motion and DVD Studio

Dear PowerPage:
I recently (7/30/04) purchased a PowerBook G4 and Final Cut Pro. I paid US$999 for FCP and I was hoping to upgrade to get Motion and DVD Studio. Why is the upgrade $699 when you can get the whole thing today for $1299? I’d be paying $1700 for something you can get for $1299. Why would a current AAPL customer have to pay that much more than a new customer? At the time I made my purchase Motion wasn’t even shipping…
Is there a way to upgrade for less?
