Agreed Hemlock, there is nothing else quite like it out there. It takes some calgiones to give it a 1 of 10 for functionality because the free trials don't get all the beta updates. The guy bitches when he hasn't even bought it. The trial version will still work on 99.9% of the titles out there. It's like me saying that Porsches are lousy cars because I haven't bought one. ;>)

Betas are betas and this one has single-handedly culled the list of unsupported BD+ discs that had piled up recently. The software functions beautifully, as always.

There's no reason to push out official updates every week or two. Registered users don't need to worry, anyway, since they can use the betas. The only people who have an issue with official releases spaced apart by more than 21 days are the people who haven't bought the software and if they buy it there won't be a problem.

AnyDVD/AnyDVD HD is an excellent piece of software. Using it involves little technical knowledge since it does all the work and makes it look effortless when what is does is anything but simple. No other program can compare to what AnyDVD does for standard defintion DVDs, HD-DVDs, or Blu-Ray releases.

Two thumbs up!

It should be noted when beta versions are posted that with a recent change only existing registered users can use the beta releases. I believe this has been in effect for at least a month. Nonetheless, trial users of the software can only make use of official releases and not beta releases.

Good software (only thing I've found that seems to work for many Blu-Ray ... so far.
But is the license good for multiple home PCs? I can't afford more than one license, but I have two media PCs...

This tool is simply one of the easiest and most updated products that I have ever found. There has only ever been one other tool that I thought this highly of, and that was DVD-D*. If the author of the afore mentioned program went to SlySoft, he would easily be a millionaire. SlySoft has, by far, impressed me with the ease of use and functionality of it's astounding program that I will be purchasing their product for myself for Christmas. With their 20% off special, that makes the program just under 50$ US currency. Well worth the cost. Well worth the applause.

Yes, it is expensive. I can't disagree. It is a huge price to pay just to get my Blu-Ray and HD-DVD discs to play nicely without the HDCP complications.

However, it is updated seemingly every 2-3 days, continuously getting around newer methods that would make it inoperable. Unlike the free competitor (which didn't work at all for me), this product actually WORKS, works well, is updated, and the software vendor actually CARES about the clients in order to keep it working. That alone is a big deal in my book.

If you want to complain, complain about the HDMI/HDCP implementations which are so very limiting to people who pay good money for movies.

I'm using my copy of this to play back BR&HDDVD movies via Nero Showtime on my Dell 3008 monitor -- all while keeping my monitor resolution at 2560x1600. I've also used it to rip BRs & HDDVDs for discless playback. I'd note that on some discs, playback on difficult disc RIPS can sometimes work better if you navigate to the actual movie file instead of trying to play the 'disc' via the main menu. (this is not a fault of AnyDVDHD as the same issues crop up with the disc -- it's the fault of the varying disc protection schemes which make things difficult for a software player like Nero Showtime)

You know people are complaining about the price but they could have done what I did a couple of years ago. Bought the software for a lot less $ and I have been getting new updates for free since. Not many companies do that anymore. Most of the time when they change versions they get you for an upgrade. I think for even what they are charging now it is a great deal. I think that ANYDVD and CLONEDVD are some of the greatest softwares out there. Keep up the good work!!

You can thank George Bush and Hank Paulson for the steep US price. The US dollar is worth diddly shit. This is NOT Slysoft's fault. Conversion rates are what they are, period. Secondly, the price is for a LIFETIME license, a LIFETIME license complete with future upgrades! AND this software continues to work, year after year. Give me a break about the price guys.

AnyDVD HD

I suppose it's nice to be the author of a piece of software that has no competition. To set the price to $130 USD and not even offer a retail box, documentation, or even a CD is greedy beyond it's value. Do NOT pay that kind of money for this software.

I don't advocate piracy but prices like this make me wish I had.

As far as functionality goes, it works great and does what it says. My short-lived trial is now over and the software fails to work. It's been disabled and I will not pay $130 and I suggest you don't either. With a little patience, I'm sure a reasonably priced application with appear on the market. I'd have no problem paying $75 for this, but not $130. While I wait I'm going to go to every software review site that I can and let other's know NOT to buy this overpriced utility.

These comments are about AnyDVD HD.

This is one of the few tools currently available (as at June 2008) which claim HD (Blu-ray & HD-DVD) decryption capability; and is also one of the tools which actually does what it claims. Where DVDFabHD failed to even 'see' my HD drive (LG GGC-H20L), AnyDVD HD had no such problem and successfully decrypted Blu-ray and HD-DVD discs to my HDD.

HD decryption functionality is effectively limited to 'entire disc' decryption. Considering the cost of purchasing the HD version of AnyDVD, it's not unreasonable to expect a bit more flexibility such as a 'movie only' option.

Price cannot be described as being any less than exorbitant when HD decryption functionality is so limited. But as I was over a barrel, I had no choice but to purchase this tool (I purchase ALL the software that I use).

This may be great software, but this looks more like a greedy software writer to me.

Any DVD itself costs 49 Euro, the equivalent of $77 for a program that comes without packaging, shipping, distribution, etc. That is outrageously expensive when retail software product in a store in commercial packaging generally costs only about $50.

Second, the default "purchase" page on the author's website lists a 155 Euro bundle ($245, thank you very much), obligating you to remove the programs you don't want.

Now, I have no problem compensating authors fairly for their hard work. But being a little too greedy about it, makes me hesitate even considering rewarding this author's approach.

I'd just as soon buy a second DVD player to handle the region issue!

Unfortunately for those of us in the USA, Slysoft has dumped the dollar as their currency of choice and switched to the Euro. So now every time the dollar loses ground against the Euro in financial markets (which seems to happen almost daily nowadays), the price of AnyDVD HD goes up again. I don't see any end to this situation until or unless the FUBAR'ed USA economy gets fixed.

This program does a great job but the price is entirely too high. You cannot purchase AnyDVD now you have to purchase the AnyDVD-HD version. Also, the price is NOT $50 like it says here but rather around $115, which, in my opinion, is absolutely ridiculous even with lifetime upgrades.

Nice tool and I never had a problem with it. You can use it to decrypt DVD content. Just start it and copy the content of the DVD to your hard drive. AnyDVD will decrypt it while the files are copied by Windows.

Very handy software, Works seamlessly. I use with an external DVD Drive in a fan cooled enclosure and can backup directly to Nero Digital in Nero Recode with no intermediate file on HDD. Have not encountered copy protection problems (yet) looking forward to trying it with different encoders. At $40.00 USD it isn't cheap but saves time which isn't cheap either!
