I'd say go to the "Finger style" section of the library, do any introductory lessons then choose a song you like and already know cold. A Christmas song, Auld Lang Syne, an old standard, just pick something you could sing or hum all the way through the melody of the song and maybe could easily play the accompaniment. Then of those songs pick the one with the simplest harmony (least cord changes). I think that would give you the best introduction to the style.

I'm just a subscriber like you so I don't know anything about discounts but I 'd say don't buy a bunch of extra style packs right away. See how you use the program first then you can always add packs later. Maybe Wes Severson knows if there is some discount available.
