This is the latest news about CloneCD Did get it from cdfreaks.com Lets hope we get a update soon!!! Elby announces that CloneCD emigrates to Antigua! A few days ago we posted some news on Ollie, creator of the once very popular CloneCD software, speaking about the current legal situation in Europe. Due to German laws CloneCD could not be developed anymore. But, according to Ollie the SlySoft company, located in Antigua and currently responsible for the AnyDVD Software, would be interested in marketing CloneCD and perhaps a new update would be released soon. This update hasn't been released yet but Elby did send us a press release in which they announce that CloneCD has emigrated to Antigua: As a reaction to the new Copyright Law in Europe, Elaborate Bytes AG has to stop the distribution of CloneCD. The new law, which will come into force in Germany in the next days, will prohibit to copy protected media - even for private use. CloneCD will neither be available as a boxed version in the big stores nor as an online version from Switzerland. Bilateral contracts between Switzerland and most of the European countries prohibit the sale from Switzerland to the respective countries. Elaborate Bytes AG will sell the rights of CloneCD to SlySoft, a company located on Antigua. Only the online version of CloneCD will be available for sale on the Internet. The price will approximately stay the same and the clients of Elaborate Bytes will keep their one-year free update rights. At this point the team of Elaborate Bytes will say thank you for the long-standing loyality of its costumers and hopes that the new products will lead to the same satisfaction
