Bender Converter is also an easy-to-use online video converter for the successful conversion of audio and video files uploaded from your computer. Your video and audio files can be converted to MP3, AVI, WMV, FLV, iPod, iPhone, iPad and many other popular formats. But it requires that your target file should be less than 100MB. If you don’t mind this limitation, just try and enjoy its great features. Bender Converter is also available for you to fetch videos from DailyMotion and many other services, then you can download and convert them in MP3, AVI, MP4 and some other formats.

Prepare a Nice Bender Converter Alternative

However, here are some limitations like video size and the number of conversion time. It is slow in conversion speed and may produce output file of low quality. Most importantly, there is a higher risk in exposing video content after uploading video files for converting. Therefore a desktop-based video converter is comparatively safer and more user-friendly. Here I recommend an excellent video converter alternative - Pavtube Video Converter Ultimate.

Why Choose Pavtube Video Converter Ultimate as the alternative to Bender Converter?

This video converter allows you to convert any video file you like to other video formats. There is even no watermark attached on the converted files.

DVD Shrink: Free DVD Copy Review and Alternatives

What is DVD Shrink?

DVD Shrink is a freeware DVD transcoder program for Microsoft Windows that uses a DVD ripper to back up DVD video. The final versions are 3.2.0.15 (English) and 3.2.0.16 (German); all other versions, such as DVD Shrink 2010, are scams.[2] DVD Shrink's purpose is, as its name implies, to reduce the amount of data stored on a DVD with minimal loss of quality, although some loss of quality is inevitable. It creates a copy of a DVD, during which the coding only allowing the DVD to be played in certain geographical areas is removed, and copy protection may also be circumvented. A stamped DVD may require more space than is available on a writeable DVD, unless shrunk. Many commercially released video DVDs are dual layer (8.5 GB); DVD Shrink can make a shrunk copy which will fit on a single-layer (4.7 GB) writeable DVD, processing the video with some loss of quality and allowing the user to discard unwanted content such as foreign-language soundtracks.

Why need an alternative to DVD Shrink?

However free things are not always good. Free DVD Shrink is not the all-in-one DVD copying software. For example:
If you directly burn DVD backup copies with DVD Shrink, it requires Nero as the default burning software.
It has the possibility to remove popular DVD copy protections such as CSS (most commercial DVDs used), RC, RCE, etc.
Since the author of DVD Shrink has been stopped developing it from 2005, it is not supporting the new Window OS (Windows 10) well enough. It just works better on Windows 9x/2000/XP. And the Vista family of Microsoft Windows (Windows Vista, Windows 7) may have issues running DVD Shrink. This free DVD Shrink also doesn't work well with Windows 8 or Nero 7/8/9, and cannot burn and rip DVD while decrypting new DVD copy protections independently.
There is no doubt that you may run into the same issues above. I have to say that DVD Shrink has already become obsolete. You’d better choose one powerful alternative for DVD Shrink.
