What's New
Version 3.4.0:
The user can now use space to make up the volume name for the following: Action > Create Blank Read/Write Disc Image, Batch-Action > Convert Folders into Disc Images, Batch-Action > Create Blank Read/Write Disc Images
Preferences > SLA: The application can automatically find the path to Rez and DeRez when the user set the location of Developer folder (Xcode).
Action > Add Software License Agreement to Disc Image: It's redesigned for easier use. (It's copied from Discs2Go.)
Fix: A measure is taken to stop an occasional crash after the user quits the application.
The application should now be fully compatible with Snow Leopard.
Right-button-click on a folder in the folder list and choose 'Calculate Folder Size,' and the application will calculate the folder size.
Fix: The checkboxes pointed to wrong functions in Preferences > Settings.
Other numerous minor changes and fixes are made.

Is there any chance that MacHouse will someday realize just how UGLY every one of his apps is? He's been using the same hideous set of Windowsy buttons and icons for many years, but until now he's been oblivious to their ulcerousness. You'd think he'd learn from selling only eleven copies!
I'm definitely considering Little Disc+ now that the developer has reduced the price from $39.95 to $24.95.
While a $15 difference isn't huge, I felt paying nearly $40 for something that is essentially a disc conversion utility was a bit steep.
Having said that, the functionality that Little Disc+ promises is something I could find myself needing quite regularly. Particularly with content that is stored on proprietary image formats.
One thing that I'd put on a wish-list for the future, would be compatibility with disc image formats like .mdf and similar which are usually unique to applications which don't exist on the Mac.
I've even come across content in a form of segmented .mdf format which doesn't seem to be converted properly with other conversion utilities that I've tried.
If the developer shows himself willing to continue developing and supporting this utility, then I for one will certainly be willing to pay the license fee.
NAOH, Little Disc+ will not support MDF for now. We've been trying to support this disc image format created by Alcohol 120%. But a command-line tool for reading this format works for old disc image version(s). We could certainly make this function (converting old mdf disc images into ISO) available. But few users would find it useful. We would not misrepresent our product, making it look like it reads all versions of MDF.
We appreciate LEE123's opinion. Some people just want to attack software developers out of boredom or perhaps to earn respect from other users without even touching the application in the first place.
