An announcement was made by the Autodesk Labs Blog concerning a change in the way most Autodesk customers will receive and install their software. With the tremendous development of technology over the past several years, it is now viable and effective to download software online. Autodesk is taking an ‘eco-friendly’ (see: ‘cost-saving’) move to reduce the amount of installation discs they distribute to customers.

This change doesn’t affect Media and Entertainment customers and there are several countries excluded from this program (click the link above for details). Keep in mind, though, that the important date to keep in mind is March 12th. Have your preferences set on your Autodesk account before then in order to avoid any delay in receiving install discs if that is your choice.

In honor of this change, Indydrafter.com is posting a poll regarding your preferences in installing Autodesk software. Find it soon on the Polls Page.
