Pay What You Want (Min $8 USD) for Crossover Mac + Other Mac Apps

90

(Kinda) pay what you want for 10 Mac apps. (I tried $0, they tell you "Your payment amount must be between $8 and $10,000!") Whole list:

  • iRip ($25 USD)
  • Lucid ($45 USD)
  • Crossover ($40 USD)
  • DiskDrill Pro ($89 USD)
  • HDR Darkroom 3 ($89.99 USD)
  • Vitamin-R ($25 USD)
  • SyncMate Expert ($40 USD)
  • ForeverSave 2 ($20 USD)
  • Back in Focus ($99 USD)
  • Beautune ($30 USD)

Haven't heard of any of them before except Crossover, but some of the others look like they could be useful too.

    Then I guess it's not pay what you want then.

    FYI - after you order, they send you 10 seperate emails with licence keys for each app.

  • Has anybody had experience with these programs, are they quality software?

    Are they spammers if you give them your email?

    • I'm not sure about creatable.co, but I bought a very similar bundle of software a few months ago, and tbh CrossOver was more trouble than it's worth.
      It's just a glorified Wine package, which is free normally.
      Something like Parallels in the Crystal mode? (IIRC) is a much better alternative.

      It's a deal yes, but not much of one. But hey, $8 is $8.

      • Did you find wine to be as good as CrossOver? I have an old CrossOver and it does run some Windows native code, didn't try Wine.
        Isn't Parallel much more expensive than $8.

        • Yes Parallels is a lot more expensive, but I'd rather use that and not have to fight to get things to work.
          Parallels I know almost anything that runs on a PC will work, whereas with CrossOver they have a compatibility list you have to check.
          Not all programs are just going to work.

          Wine I used for a little bit but was never 100% successful, always had some issues.

          If the program you want to run is on the compatibility list as being 100%, then by all means go ahead :)

        • @rdx: just because you brought in parallels, I was wondering whether parallels is better than vmware fusion for Mac?

          I've been using vmware fusion for work, but never really use it for games. But I believe it will be rather difficult to run Windows game (which require intense graphic) on a vm?, which then might better of using bootcamp?

        • @televisi: Bootcamp for sure will be superior, but Parallels is known for being better optimised for games :)

          @rdx: Thanks for your response; will check out parralels now

    • I've bought the Pick a Bundle they ran a month or so ago and haven't been spammed so far. I personally like Crossover, with the caveat that its compatibility is nowhere near as good as a dedicated VM. If you want a Wine GUI and don't mind something more basic you could try WineBottler. Crossover's the only thing that interested me though.

  • Paid $12 and they refunded it!!

    • Do you mean, they are not accepting your offer?
