Site down, can't buy a license or activate the trial

Hi, the main site has been offline for me for a few days now. www.makemkv.com doesn't load at all, only the forum still works.

Two problems on my end. I wanted to buy a license but I can't reach the order page. And I can't even use the trial, because the program can't reach the activation service, so I'm stuck with software I can't run.

I was hoping to use it to put together a proper ripping script for my collection, so I'd really like to get it working, and I'm happy to pay for it.

Is this a hosting issue? I saw the domain was renewed until 2027, so it doesn't look like the DNS problem from last year.

If I can help in any way, testing from here in the Netherlands or anything else useful, just say so. Otherwise I'll keep checking back and buy as soon as it's up.

Thanks for making MakeMKV, it's great software.

The main site may be down, but...

Registration is currently off-line in any case. The current beta key, which expires in a few days, can be found here, where it always is.

We are waiting to hear from Mike as to what's going to happen with registration, and he's the only person who can do anything with it.

I may not have Makemkv but i somehow convinced Claude code to make me a python script that rips bluerays with libaacs.
and encodes them in handbreak, so i might not even need it in the Future, anyhow makemkv is still better for now so i will be waiting for mike :D
