Looking to revive the deals question. I just upgraded Ableton Live to Suite and got some nice sound libraries from Precisionsound.

http://www.store.precisionsound.net/index.php - 50% sale on all samplesets http://www.synthtopia.com/content/2012/12/04/holiday-deals-for-musicians-2012/

What are you getting this holidays season? Any other deals you're aware of?
