IsoBuster is part
Freeware and part Shareware.
What does this mean
?
Lots of features of
IsoBuster are entirely for free, others need to be paid for. All the
functionality prior to version 1.0 is still for free and remains
free.
A lot of knowledge,
experience, research and effort has been put into this small but powerful
application. It goes without saying that a registration, even for the
free functionality, is appreciated. Consider it as a contribution to
the research. You never know when you will have need for the
registration-restricted functionality. The cost is deliberately kept
low to be able to offer a solution to everybody. High end software at
a low price is a major priority for Smart Projects, yet it requires some
fair play of everybody to be able to guarantee continuity.
If you install
IsoBuster and want to make use of the free functionality only, click the
"Free Functionality" button when prompted. If you run into
functionality that needs to be paid for, you will be prompted. There are
no hidden features so you need not to wonder what a paid for version would
show extra. You can safely install IsoBuster on your system, there are no
xx-days limitations to the free use, you may install at work or wherever
you like.
FYI, Smart Projects
intends to keep adding both registration-restricted and free functionality
in future versions.
