I think the widgets are great additions to Livecode. That said, I have 
not purchased the MegaBundle. My Livecode commercial/business/whatever 
license is paid out to something like 2023 or 2024 due to past fund 
raising where the mothership offered license extensions as part of the 
packages in those efforts. I am licensed for all platforms, with the 
professional extensions, so I don't need any more platforms and I really 
don't need my license extended or any store credits. If there had been a 
bundle offering that was JUST the extra widgets and stuff without an LC 
license stuff bundled in, I would have bought one.

I don't like to get too far ahead of LC licensing. After all I could get 
hit by the proverbial bus tomorrow and having 2 years or prepaid LC 
licensing would go to waste (for me at least).

So, I think it is worth the $ if you need additional platforms and/or 
your license extended (if it is about to expire in, say, another 15 
months or less). It may not be worth the $ if you are all set for the 
next couple of years on LC licensing itself.
