The only real downside I'd say of MakeMKV is it cannot remove Cinavia then again DVDFab's Cinavia module is pretty much a waste of money at this point. DVDFab sucks at this, have had several times were DVDFab didn't pick the right subs. MakeMKV imo does a better job with finding the correct subtitles (I just go through and tick them all then watch the output to find the forced ones). They did at one point have a Linux version but quickly dropped support as no one was buying it (I guess they don't understand that Linux users support free, open-source software (FOSS)). DVDFab is only supported on Mac or Windows. MakeMKV you can run in Windows, Linux or Mac. MakeMKV typically works on everything I try where DVDFab has failed on some newer titles. MakeMKV is a lot lighter in that there isn't 20 different modules that all want you to pay for them.

MakeMKV is free provided you have the beta key or you pay like $50 one time for the software.

So having used both quite extensively - here's my take.ĭVDFab costs quite a bit of money unless you are just using the free Decrypter part (and I thought even that eventually wanted you to pay for it).
