The only thing that 'justified' the pricetag for me is that I realized I likely spend more than $60 on coffee per month, let alone alcohol. I think I'll skip the trip to the liquor store this week & support Mike instead.

I'm in a similar position. We may get a new key shortly, we may not, but I get enough use of the software to make a purchase worthwhile. One thing though, my laptop might not have too much life left in it, does anyone know if a purchased key will work if I buy a new laptop in future and re-install ...

After using MakeMKV for 2+ years and ripping 500+ disks/bluerays I finally bought a license. I was pretty panicked because I see like 3 posts every month about someone placing their order & not getting a key... but I'm happy to report mine came in within a few minutes. I'll count myself lucky

Ouch for $300 I'll wait on your feedback on how well it works before I consider biting the bullet on that.

How is your upscaling process so radically different from the on-the-fly conversion offered by most playback chipsets? Having something take 9 hours per episode vs on the fly would either imply an inefficiency or more time & processing power allocated for (theoretically) better results. That wo...

GPU transcoding is of help. For me personally, th...

You've got everything you need bud. If you change your mind & want to rip UHD then you can figure that out in the future. In regards to concerns of hardware eventually failing; everything eventually fails. Don't be paralyzed trying to figure out the PERFECT thing - you might get the 1/1,000,000 ...

++my vote for darkmode

Haven't had any issues myself - I know I have had to flip between newer/older versions of make MKC for some disks at random times. Have you tried a clean install at the very least or a different disk reader?

Oddly all disks of FMA Brotherhood are failing to rip on version 1.17.1. This is after data protection & regardless of what mode was selected. Rolling back to 1.16.7 worked just fine & all disks generating MKV files without issue now. No errors show up in the 1.17.1 version, read rate increa...
