Written without harshness Can we be real that the only reason one would consider these 2 libraries as competitors is that they're both very temporarily on sale and there's an urgency that "the deal will slip away" by next week? In every other sense, these products are miles apart in what they aim to do. Take a step back, decide what you really are lacking in your template, and then get the matching product, regardless of if it's the best available BlackFriday deal.
I think you've got lots of great strings already, the only thing you might be needing (if "css2" meant CS2) is a very dry and close recorded library. Afflatus seems better in that regard. But buying that library - regardless of how on sale/intro priced it is - is buying a lot of stuff you may not need, like all the ensemble patches mixed with woodwinds or ethnic instruments.
