Why do you need a beta key to rip DVDs if that's supposed to be free functionality?

It is not. The application will be pay-to-use once it goes out of beta.

What few are considering is the fact that, as a beta program, it changes on a regular basis to keep up with copy protection. The expiring key is intended to encourage you to check for newer versions.

In the old days, new versions were issued more frequently than every 60 days, and new versions had new keys.

The program already tells you if a newer version is available when you load it. No need to expire a key for that.

Honestly i wish i could afford the cost to buy right now as the software is worth it. Being on a low fixed income sucks. I am in the same boat waiting but knowing it will come.

I wish they would make it easier to purchase the software! I got to spend about half an hour on the phone with my credit card company when I tried to purchase the software ages ago. The payment wouldn't go through for some reason. I haven't tried recently though.
