General Software Discussion / Re: Resource Builder or Resource Tuner - Are they really necessary ?

From a basic look at both websites, here are some differences:
Resource Builder includes an icon editor and support Unicode. With the 64% DC member discount, it costs $17.82 for a single user licence which can be used for commercial purposes.
Resource Tuner does not support Unicode and requires the purchase of a separate icon editor (eg. AWIcons Pro, which they also sell). With the 50% DC member discount on Resource Tuner, it costs $34.98 for a business licence (which allows commercial use), coupled with $60 for an AWIcons Pro business licence. Therefore, it costs $94.98 for a similar solution to Resource Builder.
Neither solution seems to support 64-bit exe/resource files.
So, on the surface Resource builder seems the better solution as it supports Unicode and costs a whopping $77.16 less.
