Can I pay for MakeMKV using PayPal?

While waiting for this month's beta key I figured I may as well finally buy it. There's a "PayPal" logo on the purchase page next to all the CC options (Visa, MasterCard etc.) yet when you click on "Buy", the form doesn't give me the option to pay via PayPal.

Unfortunately, I don't trust the payment processor so I won't enter my credit card info into this form which is why PayPal would be my preferred option. Let me know if it's simply not available (in which case - why show the logo) or if I'm missing something.

Thanks.

Wow. It's the old "because it's piracy" excuse? Eh, PayPal... :roll: I guess they never heard of Plex.

I'm sure they've heard of a lot of things, but... As a corporation, PayPal feels they need to virtue-signal that they're against piracy. You can still buy DVDs from pirate operators in Malaysia on eBay using PP (apparently it's somewhat legal there), but you can't use PP to buy software intended to transfer data from optical disks to your hard drive.
