Subject: Shredder, Fritz or Junior?

Hello to all

I am considering an upgrade of my chess playing software, and want to buy one of
the Chessbase products again. I use Fritz 7 now, but I want to play on the
Chessbase playing site. This is possible also with Fritz 7, but I am not allowed
to compete in the simultaneous chess plays, etc.

I am considering to buy one of the following programs:
1) Fritz 8
2) Junior 8
3) Shredder 8

I know that with Fritz 8 I am allowed to join the simultaneous events. Is this
also the case with the two other programs? When will Fritz 9 be brought out, if
any plans are already made?

I am also interested in your ideas about which program is most tactically
orientated. Which program plays moves that are usually considered as human? I
read something about the sacrifices of Junior in some games against humans that
were very "intuitive" of nature.

Thank you all in advance.
