Pretty [h]ot, cheap Microsoft expression studio server and visual studio for web devs

There is a $100 fee at the end of three years, then there is no obligation to buy discounted software at the end.

This program is meant to help out small/independent dev shops who are actively developing for others. This program is not meant for someone just looking to score free development tools who will never use them professionally.

Expression Studio is the application used to develop in Silverlight and WPF. If you did not understand 3 or more words in the previous sentence then the product is not for you.
 
Just keep in mind that you don't own anything after three years, bascially you have a 3 year lease on these products for $100
What happens after the 3 years?
WebsiteSpark is a 3 year program. There is no obligation to continue to use any of the software after the three years is over, and there are no costs for the three years other than a $100 program fee at the end of the three years.

At the end of the three years, WebsiteSpark participants can optionally choose to purchase all of the software in the WebsiteSpark program via a $999/year package. This includes 3 copies of VS Professional, 1 copy of Expression Studio (including Blend and Sketchflow), 2 copies of Expression Web, and 4 processor licenses of Windows Web Server 2008 and 4 processor licenses of SQL Server Web edition that can be used for production deployment.

Alternatively, if you want to purchase only the production server licenses, you can take advantage of a $199/year offering that includes both 1 Windows Web Server processor license and 1 SQL Server Web edition processor license. You can buy the quantity you need of this package at $199/year each.
