Damn, you guys totally rock. I'm going to buy this anew rather than upgrade .. my little bit to try and help support y'all. Keep it up!

This really depends on what articles you read.I hope HD DVD wins-so far all the articles that I have read are calling it the winner for now.

For us the decision to support HD DVD with AnyDVD HD was simple:
1.) No region code. Makes my job easy.
2.) Less DRM. Again, makes my job easier.
3.) XBOX360 HD DVD drive. Cheap solution to read HD DVD discs on a PC. Works fine under Windows XP & Vista. Available now for everyone.
4.) Consumer friendly. You can write HD DVD structures on normal DVDs, and HD DVD player will (well, should) play it.
Maybe I have to support Blu-ray in the future, but if I am lucky, Blu-ray will die first.
Only a little bit. I was a little disappointed that someone else was faster in releasing a backup tool. But this is in a way a great motivation.I also can't wait to see this version.
James, just out of interest, have you been following the developments on Doom9?

This sounds great^^
Just upgrade my pc(buy new VGA card-HDCP and new LCD-HDCP)
Hope can see AnyHD-DVD soon
Save the money for the HDCP monitor. Buy AnyDVD HD instead.
We don't have a beta test program yet, but we want to utilize this forum for this purpose (with a closed beta test group).@James - do you have a beta test program at SlySoft? If you need anyone to help beta test the HD variant of AnyDVD in some demanding real-life scenarios as you develop it, I'm more than happy to help out. Drop me a PM if you want to check out my credentials; I have quite bit of experience in testing environments and I'll sign non-disclosure etc. if you want. Just an offer, no problem if you don't want to take me up on it. Good luck anyway.
PS hope this post doesn't trigger a flood of 'me too'. Also, sorry if there is a specific area for beta-testing, I didn't see one.

But this isn't my department, so I don't know when this will happen. We opened the forum just yesterday so we need some time to get things running smoothly before thinking about the beta program.
Your product has sold millions of dvd burners. If you can support the upcoming HD DVD burners you will make that format the winner in the HD DVD vs Blue Ray war. I have a Toshiba HD DVD player and HD DVD is much better then an up-converted DVD.We are currently working AnyDVD HD, and it will be an awsome product!
I have an early Alpha Version, and it decrypts any HD DVD disc I have tried. Even better, the first version will probably have a working "Remove annoying trailers..." function. Adios, FBI warning. And the 20 second Universal "HD-DVD is great" logo which you cannot skip is now gone for good.
