Mine came via e-mail without a problem.

But after installing the software, I am not sure where I enter the registration code. Unless I just clicked past it, I never saw any prompt asking for it. Anyone know where the reg code goes?

Check your spam folder. Yahoo ditched mine right into the spam folder.

I did.

Unless it's from "PinkkToyy" and the subject is "As seen on sex and the city" it didn't get to my Hotmail junk folder either.

It is dead. The main page says "Buy Now (USD $19.99)" now.

For those of you still waiting for your serial number:

"Still waiting for your free serial number? Our giveaway was so popular that there is a large backlog in our mail servers. If you entered a valid e-mail address we will be continuing to send out serial numbers over the next two days. Remember that if you use an e-mail service with mail filtering your serial number may have been diverted into a bulk mail folder."

Unfortunately, it looks like they are not including the Mpeg2/DVD to DivX converter with this free package, so I guess that's the "catch" for this deal, making this deal not as hot. They say you can purchase the addon that enables Mpeg2/DVD to DivX conversion.

Well, I got an email to my Hotmail account today. It wasn't a registration code, it was a username and password for logging into their support site.

I believe the plug-in has always been optional and requiring a separate purchase anyway, even for a paid Create Bundle.

So if you can't do that conversion either way then which are left that might be useful? Can you convert camcorder footage?
