DVD Shrink 2008 Download

I don't know the correct terminology (copywrited?) for software, but is the original DVD Shrink still "owned" by someone? Was updating halted due to its ripping ability? Why was such a groudbreaking piece of software not acquired by someone and carried forward? Just wondering.

 

I think the author went with nero.

 

That was my understanding as well. Thus Recode was born.

 

Soooo....Nero Recode is Shrink with a new dress on? As in "updated and improved", but pay me for it?

 

In a nutshell...yes.

There were some improvements and updates though (as you mentioned)

 

That being the case, with so many Afterdawn members having Nero in their toolbox, why do we almost never hear anyone mention Nero Recode. It's always Shrink, Shrink, and more Shrink.

 

I never thought of dvd shrink as 'sexy'. Guess whatever turns you on to float your boat!!

 

Good question. I personally have not used it too much. I've used Shrink for so long, it's just part of my normal process(though Creaky keeps pushing RB ). 'Tis a good question though. I think a lot of people just still like using good old "sexy" freeware Shrink.

 

Only thing I can think of is that we tend to go the freeware route, and dvd shrink is free.

Also, some versions of nero were a lil buggy, but it seems that they have gotten it better.

 

Here's a good one for you. An hour ago I backed up one of my movies and of course went right to DVD Shrink to compress. After talking at some lenghth about Nero Recode this morning (about seven hours ago) it never dawned on me to try it. Man oh man. Old dog...no new tricks.

 

You lost me. How do you compress your DVD 9 movies? Or do you burn DL?

 

Well, that explains that. Thanks.

 

That sounds suspicious, Scott...

Suspiciously like my current arrangement!

 

The fog has lifted. It has become clear to me now. I too am following the same road.
