I don't know why but about an hour and a half ago i used both of these programs to copy a dvd and now I tried to do another one and it says both of my programs trial version has expired.

I purchased registration keys for both programs and both keys are in the same folders of the programs and it doesn't work anymore. I don't understand it but i'm pretty frustrated. Can anybody help me out?

Please tel us how and where you bought the keys? What about the official email sent to you? Do you still have it? If not you may need to send the keys to slysoft support and have them look at them to insure they're legit keys still.

The keys actually were given to me by a friend who doesn't use them anymore. His computer is no good. So maybe i should send them to slysoft support and see what happens.

All in all this is your best bet due to how you got them.

Unfortunately I doubt that SS will help you
because not only did your friend share the keys with you, he shared them with the whole wide web and SS got a copy of them and have been permanently blacklisted.

or your friend may have purchased them from ebay = same diff

If he's useing it and your trying to that would be against the terms and agreement.

What you are trying to do is against the EULA of Slysoft. I suggest you contact them at their support site. This thread is not helping anyone. If you are to use the software you will have buy a liscense.

An extra copy is not as ridiculous as it sounds, I have extra registered copies of CloneDVD2 and AnyDVD licensed legitimately from SlySoft to me.

All you need to do is email SlySoft and get them to check if the Keys are real. I am not sure however if purchased keys are transferable (James?) if they are you could get them registered in your name, if not then buy new ones.

If the keys no longer work
they have obviously been multi-shared
and thus blacklisted

If someone were to share with a friend or relative or 2 tho not kosher
the keys would not get blacklisted

Is there any instruction to warn the users that AnyDVD is only valid for single use? or we all try to protect Slysoft and act as safeguard of SS. Even with Microsoft products (Windows, Office) mullet user as long as in the same household is not being enforced. When User pay $40 for 1MB of program and having two computer to use it would be outrageous to say no no you can't do that.

I dont think we protect SS, people post obvious use of illegal hacks intentionally or not and they get answers to their questions.
I dont see any post initiated to """protect SS"""

If the forum changed its rules and said all hacks/cracks etc were welcomed and encouraged, then that would be another ballgame.

re MS software : not entirely correct eg latest windows ie XP it requires acrivation and then validation which keeps legal install within the licence limit
only software having activation can the limit be enforced
I for one would not mind SS developing an activation protocol and allowing 3-4 household limits

The problem here with OP is multi-sharing to the extent of posting the regkey at warez sites
this eventually gets the keys blacklisted with the the next update, and then you see frantic posts such as the OP's when the update does come out.
Otherwise how would the key get blacklisted??

TCAS -

It might be helpful to review the “SlySoft Terms & Conditions” usually referred to as the “EULA”. The below Web Link to the “SlySoft Terms & Conditions” clearly states that SlySoft Software Products are only valid for single use.

http://www.slysoft.com/en/terms.html

It appears that if a SlySoft Customer that is aware of the SlySoft “EULA” provisions and makes other Forum Members aware of the SlySoft “EULA” provisions you somehow equate that to “protect Slysoft and act as safeguard of SS”. Many SlySoft Customers who happen to be CD Freaks Forum Members think otherwise and disagree with your equation.

Again, this thread is all speculation, if anyone wants to do something like this they need to get the authorization from the publisher, in this case it woud be Slysoft. The EULA is easy to understand but only the companys have the right to change it. Anything said here by people that are not Slysoft representatives are not be taken seriously.

Please All do not forget this forum and this site is Slysoft owned property and do not try to turn it into Slysoft forum.

Zaq: says"

Please realize the use of AnyDVD by itself is Hack/crack by illegally removing Movie industry protection that why they had the court order to close DVDXcopy. So please do not try to use this type trick to scare people. If action and product of Slysoft was legal then we could go buy Any DVD from any local retail store.

TCAS does make a relevant point. Any software which aids in the circumvention of a copy protection scheme violates the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, and is thus in violation of U.S. Law.

321 Studios, makers of DVDXCopy, a software program which circumvented CSS Encryption to allow users to backup their DVDs, already argued and lost in US Federal Court. They asserted that as their software was targeted at individuals who legally purchased DVDs and thus had a fair use right to make a personal backup copy, it was only logical that a software company could create software to provide these consumers with the means to make such a backup copy. The court found that while consumers do in fact have a right to make a backup copy of their legally purchased movies, any software that circumvents a copy protection scheme is in violation of the DMCA and is illegal. The Judge stated that fair use did not guarantee consumers the right to a pristine digital copy but rather only guarantted the ability to make some copy- which he stated was still possible through non0digital means. (This argument is also suspect considering that the Macrovision protection on DVDs makes it difficult to make a decent copy using non-professional recording equipment). 321 Studios went out of business after they lost their case.

Anyways, the state of U.S. Copyright law clearly establishes that any software program that circumvents a copy protection scheme is illegal. Slysoft is effectively immune from U.S. law because they are based in Antigua. However, a U.S. resident that purchases and uses AnyDVD is violating U.S. Copyright Law.

So, it is somewhat hypocritical to on the one hand preach a reverence for the sanctity of a corporation (Slysoft's) intellectual property while on the other to provide support for a program that blatantly violates U.S. Law. There are many reasons to believe that the DMCA is unjust and a violation of fair use, but nonetheless, it is the law in the US. I do not condone the theft of intellectual property, but I do believe that it is hypocritical to condemn anyone who discusses hacks/cracks on the grounds that this is illegal, when the very program you are using, and helping others to use, is also illegal.

Now, If you believe it's wrong to use cracks because those who do so are denying compensation to the skilled and hard-working engineers who have created AnyDVD, that's another story. I just think it's important to think about where one is coming from, when one makes the claim that X is wrong because X is illegal, when Y is also illegal, but is defended despite this fact. In that situation, the illegality of the conduct is not the basis for the condemnation, but rather other, more important considerations are raised but not made explicit.
