Maybe wait for a sale on Steam or something. I snapped up an upgradable PS3 version for $10 when it was on sale on PSN.

It seems that Lexia is saying that even if you are playing on another platform and have the client installed (e.g. downloaded for free trial) you still have to buy an unlock code. I can't verify this but I do seem to have unlock codes for three platforms registered on Mog Station, so maybe FFXIV doesn't allow subscribers to log in unless they have the unlock code for the platform they're using.

Incidentally, why are you paying £80 for the OS X download version? I see it listed for 44,99 € in the Euro store.

(Note: I already play FFXIV on my Mac but I'm looking forward to not having to boot Windows to do it!!)

One thing that's clear however is that the CE bonuses apply to your *account*, so you only need one CE (inc. digital version.)
