Batch ripper metadata license renewal

[egd]

Ok, it seems I've exhausted the batch ripper's magic number of 400 CD lookups and have now been reduced to freedb lookups only and no artwork. A few questions:

1) I thought the 400 limit applied only to AMG, what happened to the rest of the PerfectMeta suite?
2) should I decide I'm happy to pay for the additional metadata (I'm not going back to single CD ripping), what/ how do I do this?

From the Batch Ripper thread in the beta section of this forum: http://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showpost...3&postcount=18

As for purchasing AMG lookups, you can purchase them here: http://reg.dbpoweramp.com/store/prod...ID=71&P_ID=126

Note: Please do NOT purchase more than one at a time, as it says on the page.

Thanks. Based on the fact that I'm now reduced to freedb lookups only, I presume the 400 CD limit applies to all but freedb lookups?

freeDB is always free. The 400 CD limit applies only to AMG, GD3 always charges for lookups.

So, GD3 also stops working after 400?

Also, is the additional AMG license time based as well as lookup based? I'd hate to buy AMGCOM_1000 and then find that it's expired before I've used it.

GD3 doesn't have any free lookups, you have to pay to get 1. As for if the AMG lookup is time limited, that is something Spoon would have to answer.

Sorry to keep asking questions about this, but I'm confused...

If I've understood you correctly:

• when you've purchased Ref you get, AMG single rip lookups for 365 days.
• You get a maximum of 400 batch rip AMG lookups gratis following which you need to revert to a commercial license in order to continue accessing AMG via Batch Ripper
• You don't get any Gd3 (batch or single rip) without additional payment

If the abovementioned is correct, how is it new purchases of dBpoweramp (Power Pack or Reference) include 1 years access to GD3?

Batch Ripper is not CD Ripper, each needs their own license agreements with the providers. Batch Ripper comes with no free GD3 lookups.

Aah, now it makes sense. Thanks Spoon.
