I've got BV and I've only found one SecuRom issue myself: it lags at startup. On the other hand, once it actually gets going and loading it's faster than it was before, so I think in the end for me it's about the same. Both SimPE and Insim are updated for it, by the way, as is Inteen. Afaik the Maxis patch takes care of the endless respawning of Tour Guides etc that they had before, too. I recommend Bon Voyage. I don't recommend it highly-above-all-others like I do with Seasons and Nightlife, but I think it's a solid EP that's got an undeservedly bad rep. I'd say it's neck to neck with OFB. Especially if you get the player-made fixes that makes the bellhop and housecleaner act like they should rather than like they were lobotomized. ;)
The massage tables are made of awesome. Since I'm mostly playing the Legacy challenge right now I've been focusing on the extra-energy boost that the acupuncture provides, but the others are all very cute. And I got a thingie from SimWardrobe that can have me run a business offering massages if I want to! :D
Finally, I am so getting Free Time. Violin playing! I hope there're more instruments to be found along with that. But. Violins! <3 I'm also going to get that very last stuff pack that's rumored, the Kitchen and Bath stuff one? The name cracks me up. It's like Maxis ran out of ideas, sort of like calling Pets Pets.
