Default TurboTax has capitulated

Today Intuit waved the white flag because of the outrage of it's
customers and loss of market share over the new pricing policy of
charging an additional $9.95 per additional (the first return in
included in the base price) return either e-filed OR printed. While
many customers understand charging extra for e-filing, almost none could
accept charging extra to only PRINT a return on their own computer.

³Weıre responding to changing market conditions and customer feedback,²
said Dan Maurer, general manager of Intuitıs consumer division.

In the news release:

http://about.intuit.com/about_intuit...se/articles/20
08/TurboTaxNowIncludesPreparation.html

Intuit says that as of now there will be NO additional charge to EITHER
e-file OR print. Users can print at will as many returns as desired
without incurring any extra charge and can e-file up to a total of 5
federal returns without incurring any extra charge. (The limit of 5
federal e-filed returns is an IRS restriction imposed on all tax
software vendors).
