I went to the trouble of registering the software and follwing the steps required to register only to discover registration is NOT free.
The following is the welcome page once the software is installed:

In order to run DVD Profiler please obtain a registration key from www.dvdprofiler.com.

Standard registration is quick, painless and best of all, free!

I try to register and am directed to a site asking for a one time payment. There is nothing free about it. In fact I would say it's very deceptive and fraudulent, maybe in an attempt to obtain email addresses for other unscrupulous reasons.

Would anyone care to explain?

It's free as long for only 50 titles.. It's the best 30 dollars you'll  ever spend and it is one time NOT renewable every time there is an update like most software..

There are two kinds of "registration"

The first is a simple creation of a user account on the Invelos homepage. This account is required for the software to run properly and is in fact for free.

The second is the registration for the unlimited variant of the program, it is not needed for the program to run properly. Only if you want to have all functions enabled.

For the advantages of the unlimited version check here
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

That message is from the InterVocative version of the software from several years ago.  The Invelos version does not require a registration key to run, and can be run with an unlimited collection size.  After 50 DVDs, some features will disable but many users find the remaining features fit their needs.  Additionally, the Invelos version contains no ads
