updated CloneDVD has been released, but it isn't what you think it is

April 14, 2003

On CloneDVD.net we can read that CloneDVD has been released. And although many people might be happy with this news, it is not the CloneDVD where many of you have been waiting for. Many people are waiting for the release of CloneDVD from Elby, the company that is also behind CloneCD. However it seems that Elby wasn't quick enough with their domain registration, and others have claimed CloneDVD.com and CloneDVD.net. CloneDVD.info and CloneDVD.org are owned by Elby.

The owners of CloneDVD.net have now released their CloneDVD software and according to the site also this software is able to easily make a backup of your favourite DVD movies to a DVD recordable. Here are the key features as advertised on their site:

Elby has responsed to the products that
came out of the blue, as ms Messer from Elby comments; "This product has
nothing to do with us and we think it is not very creative,
taking the
product name of someone else. They really show their incompetence. There is this
big "Fair Use" Campaign in the US (321studios). Do we really need to explain
what "Fair Business Behaviour" means and start a fight about that? We would
appreciate that this company immediately changes the product
name." Download CloneDVD.net editon at CloneDVD.net.
