You may wonder WHY I compare a freeware with another two paid software. You can be surprised and please wait a second and continue reading, you will know why I bring DVDSmith Movie Backup to such position.
DVDSmith Movie Backup is a freeware and it was originally released in 2005. It features with one backup function: copying DVD on hard drive as DVD Folder, of course copy protections and region code are removed during the copying process. The reason why I introduced DVDSmith Movie Backup here is that this freeware sometimes could decrypt and copy some DVD movies with specific movie copy protections while Any DVD Cloner Platinum or Any DVD Cloner can not decrypt well or completely.
You may ask why do not just adding the same decryption technology to the other two paid software? Subject to different software development technology, it is not that easy to simply “move” from one to the others.
However, Any DVD Cloner and Any DVD Cloner Platinum performs in an all-around way especially the Platinum version. Various movie DVDs with different copy protections are supported by Any DVD Cloner or Any DVD Cloner Platinum, clone DVD, copy DVD on hard drive as DVD Folder or ISO Image File, burn DVD files from hard drive to blank DVD disc, shrink DVD9 to DVD5, rip DVD to videos that compatible perfectly in mobile devices. That is what DVDSmith Movie Backup can not do but the two paid programs can complete in a perfect way.
Features in common:
1. Decrypt movie DVD copy protections like CSS, UPOs etc.
2. Copy DVD on hard drive as DVD Folder (video_ts), which can be played directly with media player software like VLC player or KMplayer.
Differences between DVDSmith Movie Backup and Any DVD Cloner
Any DVD Cloner can burn DVD to blank DVD disc, burn DVD files to blank DVD disc, preview titles before copying
Differences between DVDSmith Movie Backup and Any DVD Cloner Platinum
Platinum can do all that Any DVD Cloner features, plus ripping DVD to video formats including MP4, M4V and MKV, which are convenient to playback on mobile devices. It is the most helpful feature for those users who need to go out frequently.
DVDSmith Movie Backup is good enough for those who just need a backup folder on hard drive, no need to pay a cent and own a powerful backup tool. As long as you have a large size hard drive disc, then you should get DVDSmith Movie Backup.
Any DVD Cloner and Any DVD Cloner Platinum meet higher needs, create DVD copies or convert to videos. And also install DVDSmith Movie Backup on your PC or Mac, you may be happy with it when you find it can decrypt some DVD movies while the other two can not.
