I've just clicked the report classified button, top left. i'd suggest a few others do the same to get the point across.

replied with classified and a remark about rip off in there this morning.
I now see it has been taken off line.

    I don't see the problem as long as the prices are down in the $0-$5-zone, then it can be compared with the people selling Linux-CDs, you pay for the CD and the time spent creating it, not the program itself. But when they start going above $5 it's too expensive.

    If you can buy it online, you can download it as well I think. But thats my opinion..

    Yep, its not ollegal to ask money for the CD and delivery. But it is illegal to not to tell that the application is freely available for a download.

    Also some Ebay "idiots" (cannot say that the sellers would be actually idiots as its the buyers unfortunately) are selling only a downloaded version.

    These people who buy this should at least google Media Portal, even with the space, the first item found is here :)

    This has been done so many times, as long as they are supplying on cd, not a lot anyone can do :(

    Media Portal DVD Multimedia Player Software for Windows on eBay (end time 08-Jul-09 18:53:56 BST)

    That one, not sure about the pictures with MTSolutions on, if they are there own "taken" using MP, but then they are ripping off every kind of software available under GNU\GPL.

    Hi. I was probably being a bit fast and loose with my terminology. I meant "somewhere within the files that MP2 uses in its database". Anyway, I found a way to do this which was far from automated but relatively low effort. I found what looked like all the images (CD covers, DVD covers, backgrounds etc all lumped together in...

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
