Got this from On2 today – What a shame…
—————————————————————————————–
Dear Flix customer,
As of June 21st, 2010 we are discontinuing
sales of licenses for On2 Flix Pro, On2 Flix Standard, On2 Flix
Exporter, On2 Flix PowerPlayers, On2 Flix Live, On2 Flix SDK for
DirectShow and Live, and On2 Flix Publisher. Google will no longer sell
or support these products.
FINAL ON2 FLIX PRODUCT INSTALLERS
Our Flix licensing server will go offline permanently on December 1, 2010.
IMPORTANT:
We have created final On2 Flix Standard, Pro and Exporter product
installers that do not verify license keys over the Internet. We
strongly recommend that all On2 Flix customers download the final On2
installer for the product you are using and save a backup copy of the
installer. These installers will go offline on December 1, 2010.
WILDFORM FLIX DESKTOP SALES AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT TRANSITION
Under
a licensing agreement with Google, Wildform is assuming development and
sales of Flix Pro, Standard, and Exporter under the Wildform Flix
brand. We currently expect that Wildform will continue selling and
improving Flix, and Wildform has already added support for the new WebM
(http://webmproject.org) open media format to Flix. For more information visit http://www.wildform.com.
Wildform will not sell or develop On2 Flix PowerPlayers, On2 Flix Live, On2 Flix SDK for DirectShow, or On2 Flix Publisher.
Support tickets from On2 Flix Pro, Flix Standard and Flix Exporter customers must be opened through Wildform at http://wildform.com/eTicket/.
Although we expect Wildform to provide reasonable support for these
products for a period of six months beginning on June 21st, 2010,
please be aware that the terms of support for each such product are
governed by the product license or customer agreement associated with
the product.
Sincerely,
John Luther
Product Manager, Google/On2
