Registration for Linux & Windows?

#1 Post by the_crowbar » Fri Jul 16, 2010 1:36 pm

If I purchase a registration key does that entitle me to use the software on both Windows and Linux? I have multiple computers. Does the purchase of a single license allow me to use the software on each of my computers?

Thanks,

Yes.

With single license you are supposed to use program at a single computer at a time. However MakeMKV has no checks to catch double usage and will never have Internet-based activation so it is more question of honesty.

Mike, you're kinda like my internet hero. If only more programmers trusted their users rather than weighing them down with DRM nonsense.

Just a quick question there. If I'm a single user, and I use it on several of my own computers at the same location, at the same time, will that be a violation of the terms?

E.g. Let's say I have 100 BDs I want to rip. To speed up the process, I install MakeMKV on four computers, and rip four discs simultaneously. Do I need four licenses?
