The topic asks it all. I've always used elby and loved it. Who can say why Slysoft is better?

Slysoft's is better......now you can backup dvd 's too and the latest version is also capable of backing up Safedisk 3..22 with emulation. :)

I thought they are same thing. Newer versions Just rebranded with new name Slysoft

Always wondered the same thing myself really. Weren't Elby told to stop producing CloneCD due to copyright laws?

Way I understand it.... move to a server in a different country and change the name.

Is Slysoft a new company from Elby?
No! We re a software company on the beautiful island Antigua. We have our own management and software developement team. We purchased software from Elaborate Bytes and continue the developement. Our relationship to Elby is based on business.

Yeah, i agree with waht HotRod said, thats what i have always heard. They are just covering there arses ;)

I knew about most of this, but was wondering if the Slysoft version was better or if they went backwards. Also, from what I can see (correct me yada yada....)
CloneDVD seems to be in developement with both companies.

Officially,Slysoft aqquired the permission to sell CloneDvd too......but it wouldn't surprise me if our well known Oliver Kastl is involved in both Elby.ch and Slysoft... ;) ...

I just wanted to know if they both use the same key file to register it.

I'm 99.9999999999999999% sure they don't.
