VirtualDrive 8.0 review: 1 stars (A marketing scam) - How I wish Amazon.com provided for negative stars, I would have given negative 5 stars.
The software works fine, but the pricing scheme is an outright scam. Look, you pay $40 for the software, that payment includes a 1-year subscription to updates, after which you renew your subcription for $20 per year. If you opt not to renew your subscription to updates, you ran the risk of your software no longer working. Think of your purchase as lease, your subscription to updates as your annual rental payments.
What is worse: if Farstone makes a significant improvement to the software, say, making it faster, it will be not be considered a program update, but an upgrade, and you have to shell out another $40 for an entirely new program.
In my case, I chose to cut my losses, unistalled the program and bought a new one-Alcohol 120 by Alcohol Software.
VirtualDrive 8.0 is the CD-ROM version. The full version can be purchased by clicking on the "CLICK HERE TO ORDER" button below for around 37.99USD.
