Your right - the latest update is now 3.0.3.0
The previous version was 3.0.2.7 it's a pity they don't include a date on their website otherwise users who have previously updated will think they already have it.

I've updated the link in our FAQ section

Speaking of SmartSound products....recently got their Sonicfire Pro 4 package with 2 content discs; Core Sessions and Core Foundations. Think Quicktracks on steroids, but it's a standalone;

Very basically; you load a video into the preview pane and do your composition in the top timeline, synching it to the video.

Very, very "pro".

It's pretty wonderful. The only downside to any SmartSound product, though, is the incredibly high cost to obtain just one of their music/audio effect discs: US$100 for most -- though they occasionally have deals which offer a set of several of them for a lower overall cost. But once you have some, you can use SonicFire to not only sync your music to the second for various parts of your video, but also move around the modules making up the audio track to correspond better with (and thus highlight) particular sequences within your video...

The multi-layer tracks shown in the picture by Terry Stetler are only for the new libraries. Your old libraries work but are not multi-layer.
