MIKE360  This app is absolutely the best. Works great to manage large video collections. Drag videos to the app and they appear in iTunes, completely tagged and with an image!!!

Great support too: I had some questions and they answer back within a couple of hours. My feature suggestions appeared in a new version only 2 days later.

One cool feature, that would make it a killer app is hot folders. They mailed me back saying it will be added soon. Can't wait!!  (Version 1.5.10)

MACMELO  The irony in this whole story is that users who pirate the software will certainly find a way to do so again and again and again (as they always do).

I agree that Aroona Software has the right to protect its product, in order to assure future development of VideoDrive, but there's a fine line here that must never be crossed... Customer experience should never be sacrified.

As DRAW said, Mac users can't stand MS-like behavior. That's why OS X does not annoy the user with registration or activation issues, unlike Windows...

I guess if this is a one time thing, it's ok... But this is it... If this happens another time, I think the company should rethink its registration strategy.  (Version 1.5.10)

DIAGO1969  This program does exactly what it says it will do and does it quite nicely! Remember, this is a program under development, and the developer is updating it quite quickly, which is far better than many others.

As for the new keying system, everyone should the understand the need for the developer to protect their investment, just as any of us end-users would protect our investment in our Mac's!

One last sentence to the guys at Aroona:

Keep making VideoDrive better and I'll be happy to get a new key whenever you feel the need for it!

P.S. If they were acting like MickeySoft, then it would cost you $99.00, take 100 times the space, be full of security holes and never completely work right!  (Version 1.5.10)
