At $79 it was worth it to me. I did not want to spend hours loking for a
free program that might or might not solve my problem. The who process
toook under 15 min, including learning how to use the program. If you

then you're inept, among other things.

it takes about a minute or two to find a less expensive option,
including free alternatives. or you could have asked for suggestions
and quickly had many options.

more importantly, if instead of arguing all the time, you actually paid
attention to what gets discussed in this newsgroup, you would have
known the name of what is considered to be the best photo recovery app
available, mentioned in another thread just two months ago, and it's
about half the price.

I doubt if anyone except the poster would have remembered the name of
any app that far back.

I'm sure I read it, but what was it?


nosense is just trying to start a tool war over recovery apps. I won't bite.
It would be interesting to see if he tries and shows an infrared
interpretation. I am hoping to get more to participate.

I can understabnd that, but what I don't like about the company or should I say mistrust is the 9.90 option to be able to re-download it, that's a total rip, because if you have brought it I'm sure they'll say you haven't brought the product but the license to use it. So you should be able to download it as many times as neccessary for the ONE lisenced computer you have purchased it for, a bit like Apple does (although they allow you as many times as you like as long as you own the computer(s) )


I have no idea whether the current version will work if I get a new
'puter with a newer O/S. A lot of companies with low priced apps do
that. All you need to do is keep a copy of the app on a CD or DVD. The
activation code is the same they sent me.

wow. good catch.

worse, you have to pay up front for the 'extended download insurance'
and it's only good for one year!! what bull****.

not only is that incredibly sleazy but that's utterly disgusting.

i have *never* seen any software company charge to redownload an app,
especially when they have free trial versions available for download!
they have your payment info on file, so all they need to do is verify
it and email you the serial number.

they also try to scam you with a 'backup dvd', adding $13 to the
purchase. it can be removed but how many people are going to bother?
anyone who really wants a dvd can burn a disc right after downloading
for pennies.

companies like that are to be avoided.

So you should be able to
download it as many times as neccessary for the ONE lisenced computer you
have purchased it for, a bit like Apple does (although they allow you as many
times as you like as long as you own the computer(s) )

apple allows redownloading at any time for as many computers as you
own, and in fact is automatic for a new computer. all that is needed is
authenticating with the apple id used to originally download the app.

any app that far back.

the point was that he participated in that particular thread and
commented on that app.

in fact, he even said he was going to save floyd's hack for future use.
yet another false statement.

he is just spouting like he usually does.

I'm sure I read it, but what was it?

I you check I started this thread. His recomendation came too late.

bucks.

I am a cheapo because I bought the first program that I thought might
work, after trying the demo. Strange use of the word.
