I believe they do film preservation, but I don't think they're a licensor or publisher. You can read a bit about their work here.

If that is meant to be some sort of retort, your point escapes me. You could quote the entire forum as reminders. The only thing that embodies our legal entitlement is the license agreement.
It was meant as an addendum to this thread.

As a reminder, this is the license agreement we agree to when installing DVD Profiler on the PC:
As a reminder, here is the last message I remember seeing from Ken, on February 25, 2024

One additional note: We're aware of the Android app absence, and will be working to resolve soon.

I have a number of WB DVDs that will no longer play completely, but fortunately I was able to get most of them onto my Plex server before this happened. For some of the others, superior Blu-ray editions have been released and I've upgraded (as I probably would have anyway.) There are a few that I've had to record off of TCM until such time as a new disc is available.

Amazon are closing their Appstore. Any alterneratives?
Simple, convince Ken to upgrade the app and get it back on the Google Play Store.

It's become a moot point with me since I upgraded my Galaxy S22 Ultra to a new Galaxy S25 Ultra and it won't run 32 bit apps. So no DVD Profiler on my phone any more, unless Invelos breaks down and upgrades.

The "no" voters should have left explanations for their votes in the comments. It's likely that some of these discs had been previously released with different covers, and you may need to use alternate versions for your contributions.
Check out this section of the rules.

For Ken’s disappearance to be effective...
Ken was on the forum this past Sunday, doing whatever it is he does around here these days. Before that, it was about four months since he'd dropped by.

I'd vote no and list the unflagged uncredited cast as the justification.

Well, someone is logging in with Ken's account, but is it actually Ken? I wonder.
The way that February post was written, I'm convinced it was Ken, however I'm at a loss to explain why what seem like easy fixes aren't being taken care of.

It would require the lifting of a finger, which is apparently more effort than this forum is worth to the moderator.

I do not know why they do not, with all the generosity and patience that Invelos has shown us over the years, simply open up the software, database and website to the world.
Is is possible that somehow the source code has been lost or compromised?

Entering it seems harmless, whether it's useful or not, and it doesn't seem to be explicitly disallowed. Removing it from one's local database and locking the field is trivial.

...If Ken wants to let his software die slowly, that’s fine — it’s his choice. I won’t criticise him for that and none of us have the right to an explanation. Get a grip - the man isn’t Jesus.
Yet you feel the need to criticize others for their gratitude that Ken keeps the online database functioning. This seems rather odd to me.

So, what do you guys think? Is this an acceptable contribution?
No. Where does the contributor suppose the "MGM" has manifested itself? I don't see it anywhere on the cover.

Why not go for the lowest common denominator and leave it blank? We are allowed to do that when we don't know what data to use.
