DVDFab 8.1.5.3 Qt Beta

I guess my issue is my expectations. What I purchased was a lifetime version of DVDFab All-In-One (all the powerful DVDFab products). Multiple times I've purchased additional features as the definition of all the powerful DVDFab products continues to change.

You purchased a lifetime license for at the time was everything, but these new features were added later. In a dream world you should get all the new features at no additional cost, but this is the real world. So no.

The fact that they've introduced new products since then doesn't affect your existing deal and you're not compelled to buy any additional licences unless you want those additional functions.

Some people say the all in one is the all in one at the time. New products are introduced which you may not need, and therefore do not need to buy.

But...

Some people, at least myself, purchased the lifetime all in one bundle with the expectation that new features would be added that would be available without extra fees. This was my expectation.

And...

I purchased things that I've never used, and may never use, as part of my lifetime all in in one bundle. I was more than willing to buy the bundle, including things I had no immediate and possibly even long term need for because this I assumed was the trade off for getting additional features in the future that you would not need to pay an additional amount for.

So...

Looks like my exceptions were incorrect. Looks like I purchased a lifetime license for things I've never used and may never use with no trade off of getting other incremental future features without an additional fee.

My recommendation...

To potential customers - only buy what you know you will use now.

To the DVDFab team - I suggest selling bundles, but not describing it as an open ended all-in-one bundle therefore setting improper exceptions. If you feel compelled to call it an all-in-one bundle I suggest describing it as a bundle of all of the currently available products to set proper expectations.

There was a Christmas special offer where DVDFab sold "All-in-One lifetime licences" which the user received a free DVDFab HD Video MP3 Player, and upcoming DVDFab products.

Here is a response from DVDFab on this matter...

"Many users wrote to us asking if they can get DVDFab HD Video MP3 Player for free after the ending of our 2011 Christmas special offer. Here is our response -- another round of campaign of DVDFab All-In-One Lifetime Gift. From now on, anyone buys DVDFab All-In-One Lifetime Gift, besides DVDFab All-In-One Lifetime (Win/Mac), they can still get DVDFab HD Video MP3 Player, and upcoming DVDFab products for free."

There was a range of purchase dates earlier; you had to buy before the cutoff date to get the player as part of the deal. Send an email to sunny(at)dvdfab.com and her to check the date of your order to see if you qualify. You will need to tell her the email address you used to make the purchase.
