A little clarification here. For two months there will be discounts available for all license holders, including some pretty nice ones for recent purchasers.
The current version will continue to work with the most current local database. It's only access to the online database that's being cut off. If you're only ripping discs with the known DRM schemes as of the 7.6.9.5 release, you're fine. New schemes, however, will only be addressed by the new 8.0.1.0 version and its successors. Developers can't "renege" on licenses. Those were sold by the owners of SlySoft, who took all the money with them when they packed up and ran. The developers worked for a paycheck. |

Actually I don't keep AnyDVD running all day, but I do still have uses for it such as ripping, and when I finish I often forget to close it. That being said, it shouldn't even be a concern?

I got a free license during the DVDfab Passkey give away back in the fall, but after reading the posts in their forums, I am not as comfortable (confident) with it as I was AnyDVDHD. I guess I'm having troubles deciding if Passkey is "good enough" or if a new license for AnyDvd is worth it. |

Now I need to decide... re-up with Dvdfab for Passkey 9, or go back to AnyDVDHD... Any suggestions? |

The DVDFab lifetime giveaway key is for version 8 only.
You can uninstall version 9 and re-install 8 but decryption for newer discs with newer encryptions are likely to be unsupported. This post on their forum explains it well: http://forum.dvdfab.cn/showthread.php?t=29785&p=189501 I'm subcibed to newsletters and events that they have, so I'll wait around the holidays for a sale and pick something if I need to. Even if it's just a yearly subscription until the lifetime for version 9 becomes affordable. The prices for DVDfab seem cheaper than AnyDVD.

Their give away emails and web site didn't say as such.
And you are right that ver 8 can be installed and use. They did say it won't be updated so you won't be able to decrypt newer discs. They are running 30% off now (at least per the email they sent now has a coupon code for it). So it will be cheaper that Anydvd today. |
