You can buy it at RegNow for that price.
Pros:
Huge selection of fonts, font previews are available, and easy installation of fonts to your computer's installed fonts folder.
Cons:
When I first opened the folder, I was like, "Whoa. What am I supposed to do with all this?" (Thus, the sheer amount of fonts may be distracting/confusing at first.)
Review:

All in all, I would say that this is a useful software for anyone that ever has the need to make graphics with fonts on them, or at least a fancy-looking Word document. There is a large selection of fonts, which you may or may not already have installed on your computer. Those that you don't already have, you can easily install by clicking the "management" button in the top right corner and copying it to the designated folder.

The software also allows you to preview the fonts (just double-click the highlighted box), in all the letters of the alphabet (used in the clever little sentence, "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.") and in all numbers 0-9. So, you will know exactly what you're getting beforehand. I find this preview function especially useful for those symbol fonts, like Webdings and Wingdings, which are always fun to play around with, but a hassle to look up or decode.

Conclusion:

Useful, helpful, easy to install, and easy to understand. I would recommend this to anyone who uses computer fonts, just for kicks.
