What to use when the 30-day trials of MakeMKV and DVDfab have expired?

Self-explanatory

Use the order page to buy a license so you can keep using them?

As captainayy says, but,

Here is Registration Key for current MakeMKV [click on MakeMKV...Menu/Help/Register]:- https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1053
Is always same link and key is updated every month (so long as still in Beta, has been beta for years now).
Executable is updated about every few months.
Not sure, think will still play BD in VLC (and other supported players) even when current MakeMKV key has expired. [Try it yourself next time yours expires]

Wonder how to get your VLC 3.0 to play encrypted blu-ray discs?

EDIT: Somebody on-site [EDIT: Roof Tile] posted updated AACS dynamic library about 3 weeks ago [EDIT: 64 bit only, I think].

So maybe also keep original libs from above VLC link, just incase new ones dont behave.

EDIT: Above linked attachments approved.

So, there are no actually free Blu-ray rippers? I guess I'll give Stainless's method a try the next time I have a Blu-Ray to rip.

MakeMKV is free while in Beta. And it's been in Beta as long as I can remember. You just have to get a new key (that they post in their forum) every so often. And you need to download and update the app too. (You'd have to download and update the app even if you purchased a license).

DVDFab has Passkey Lite. It doesn't rip the newest/latest protections but can work.
