It may attract more buyers but will it bring in more funds? I doubt it as an example, if one halves the cost ($50 reduced to $25) one then needs to double the number of clients, a growth model that historically does not work in my experience. It's so easy to get it to continue to work and with the price point being quite high, means that a lot of people choose the former option.
#JUNE 2016 MAKEMKV KEY FOR FREE#
My choice is pay up now or continue to get it for free and happily wait for the beta key to be updated (or backdate the clock on my pc). A lower price while is a free beta may actually attract more buyers. But while it is in beta, who is going to buy it (and I'm talking generally). If Mike took it out of beta and made it a paid app then I'm sure people would pay up. Equally everyone is free to pass their opinion on the business model. But one thing is certain.the price hasn't ever changed just because someone comes onto the forum and complains that it's too high and that they'd buy it if it were cheaper.Ībsolutely Mike can charge what ever he wants. Others may feel it's not worth the price. To me, the price was absolutely worth it and I've enjoyed unhindered use of the product for years now. If the backups I make with it save me from losing 2 discs, it's paid for itself IMO. I look at it this way.it costs the price of 2 typical blu-ray movies in my area.
#JUNE 2016 MAKEMKV KEY SOFTWARE#
You have to make the decision of whether the value provided by the software matches the one time price for it. No one is forcing you to use the software. And believe me, there have been dozens of threads started on that topic. No amount of moaning about the price being too high has ever changed the price. Since he wrote it, he can, and has, charge whatever he wants for it. That's nice and all, but, no one complaining about the price wrote the software and maintains it. If only it were lower, then they'd buy, they claim. People whine and moan about the price being too high. SamuriHL wrote:The price issue comes up every couple months.

The price issue comes up every couple months. So for now I'll just do what I do every time I wait for a new beta key I backdate my PC, start up MakeMKV, change the system date back to the proper date, and let MakeMKV ride in my taskbar. Heck, even at 5x the number of sales and they'll still be ahead. They could probably sell 10x the licences if it was priced in the $20 range. MakeMKV is, without a doubt, losing sales because of the high price point. That's a fair price and gives me value for my money. (Luckily the older versions continue to work.) That's an unreasonable price, especially when I consider the last few versions won't even run for me. I realize there isn't much else out there to directly compare MakeMKV to, so they can pretty much set their own price. So I'm going to say what I'm sure a lot of others are thinking - the price for this software is very high. That works out to ~$56 US at the exchange rate today. $72 CDN is what the purchase page calculates for me. Then I went to the purchase page and was shocked at the cost. Matter of fact when the beta key expired the first thing I thought was "maybe it's time to buy it."
