Actually, in the beginning we only wanted to buy CloneCD because of its good reputation and the well established brand name.
But Elaborate Bytes AG offered us a very early version of "AnyDVD" as well, as they couldn't do anything useful with the program because of DMCA, EUCD, ... (or was it still called "CrackDVD" at this time? All I remember is, that it had a really cool desktop icon - a "punk sheep")
It was based on the (now retired) elby DVDRegionKiller.
Wow, interesting. I was not aware that you purchased CloneCD outright like that. I had assumed that Elby was still developing it and you were reselling it. Very nice. Thanks for the info! (Borland...cough cough )
