PayPal is available in china:

But since you say you want to crack it I doubt very much you had any intention of paying for my hard work in the first place.

I suppose it's possible you have misconstrued porky's last comment about "cracking it" - his English is a bit weird ("I've falled into despair" - class!). He may have meant he wanted to crack (as in solve) the problem he believes there is with using Paypal, rather than crack (as in hack) your software.

You may be right, but I'd give him the benefit of the doubt.

Must've scared him off!

Anyway, I'll give AlbumView another go soon. I installed it a couple of weeks ago, used it once with problems, then stuff went crazy on my PC (not AV's fault) and I used up my trial period without really giving it a go.

Now you've reset the trial on the new version I'll give it a proper go in a few days. Hopefully you've ironed out the problems (I found it was not obtaining all the thumbnails and not correctly getting all the right tracks for every album even though MC Media Library views suggested my tags were OK).

It's your baby I know but I do think a longer trial period would be better, eg 30 days. Not to be charitable, just to increase the chances that a trialist will decide it's indispensable. Right now my impression is that (once it works correctly!) it gives a tidier interface for viewing your album collection but not worth paying £7 for since it doesn't appear to add that much to what MC already provides. It's not that I don't think you deserve the money for your work, but some people (like me) need more time and persuading to part with money than others. Maybe the 14 day trial will be enough to persuade me to buy, and maybe not. You'll find out quite soon! :)

Good luck.

In the next release I'll increase it to 30 days.

In the meantime if you need an extension drop me a PM.

Thanks  8). I'll probably install it at the weekend and see how I get on with it. Hope you don't feel I was having a go at you or your product. Will send you a PM if I'm not convinced after 14 days.

BTW is there an easy way to download AlbumView but not to install it? I want to download it at work, save it to CD, and install it at home. Cheers.

Thanks to my poor Enlish~

You Must make a mistake with me.

I've just made a joke!

But I really couldn't pay in PayPal.
Because of the network, I can't connect to the website.

And, I think the Price is....maybe too dear, Just in China, 7 Pounds equals 84 RMB 元. Hehe.
