It takes a lot more time with Turbotax than H&R Block or even just handing stuff over to a regular accountant who does tax preparation. The obscenity of paying $1000 for small business tax preparation was not moderated by the even more obscene alternative of spending four days with TurboTax (or any other software for that matter).
But at least TaxAct is a small company that's been around for about as long as TurboTax and I think their business model is far more ethical than Intuit, who are doing the absolute worst thing by basically legally bribing elected officials to keep tax preparation complicated enough that they are a going concern.
