Why should I buy a Creative Suite 5 edition instead of an individual CS component?
If your creative workflow requires multiple Adobe components, you can save money when you purchase a Creative Suite 5 edition instead of individual CS components. Depending on the Creative Suite 5 edition you purchase, you can save up to 60% when purchasing a CS5 suite edition compared to buying the individual components that make up that edition. If you’ve been using individual Adobe CS components, you may be eligible for special pricing when upgrading to a suite edition. Check the general upgrade information page or the upgrade eligibility tool to determine the most cost effective way for you to upgrade from an individual CS component to a Creative Suite 5 edition.
