Freemake.com - I am not of the opinion that this is a safe site for acquiring software. Bought a temporary licence for a few dollars in order to trial the software. Needless to say I realised the conversion software could not support the source file and despite then leaving the trial to expire they proceeded to attempt to bill my account repeatedly claiming they were wanting to debit for my ONE-TIME payment for LIFE-TIME license of Freemake. As mentioned to them via email I actually gave them zero authorization to re-debit my account through Paypal so either they are illegally attempting to re-debit my account or they are using a very sneaky tactic in their terms or their processes to trick you into making it an above-board additional transaction. I think you need to approach freemake.com with caution as lucky enough I didn't have sufficient funds in my account at the time for the debit to go through and lucky enough Paypal allow one to cancel any repeat payments. Might I add that surprisingly I found that somehow freemake.com were down in my Paypal account as an approved 'automatic payment subscriber' even though I had no knowledge of approving this at any obvious stage in the process. I am not saying freemake.com are a scam or not legit but certainly I would advise that one approaches with caution and read read read before accepting or handing over your payment details.

Take care, obviously a scam. You pay for a test period for 1 €, but I had no way to end the test...
