Payments
You can download a free time-limited edition of the CD-i Emulator
program from the Downloads section,
but I ask a modest payment for the unlimited edition.
Reasons to pay
I have put a considerable amount of spare time into this
project; version 0.5.2 of the CD-i Emulator program contains over
70,000 lines of C++ code,
all of it written from scratch in my private time.
I therefore consider it reasonable to ask for a small compensation.
It will also motivate me to keep working on this project and
answer any support questions you may have.
What you get
After receiving the payment, you will receive a login and password to
download an unlimited edition executable. You are not allowed to pass on
this information or the unlimited executable. I may occasionally change
the password, but you can always get it again (for the program version
that you paid for).
Compatibility and other minor updates will be free, for major updates you will get a discount. The DV cartridge update will probably be a major update.
At some point I may do a CD-ROM distribution of the program with some
additional perks; existing customers will then also get a discount.
Activation
After downloading the unlimited edition executable, you will need to
perform a simple one-time activation procedure. No information about your
PC or yourself is transmitted to me or anyone else by this procedure.
How to pay
At the moment I can only receive payments via PayPal. Credit card payments are accepted.
What to pay
An unlimited edition executable of version 0.5.2 will cost you
25 Euro (about 31 US Dollars as of September, 2005).
