You can buy it at RegNow for that price.
Pros:
Converts to any format for play on ANY device. Keeps original picture or provides enhancements where available. Works on music and video. Faster than ever before. Easy to use. Simple - no flashy colors or cartoon bubbles or anything, just business. Most importantly, this software is reliable.
Cons:
Sometimes my computer freezes while converting a lot of files one after the other. The computer I recently built is a quad-core and just shouldn't be shutting down for overuse period! I've never linked the problem directly to this software, however I can never not link it either. I wish is that the paid version were OpenSource freeware or something. But they gotta get paid too!
Review:

It was 2006, I was in college. Someone told me, "OMG...you have to watch this show, 'The Wire!' It is amazing. I'm poor, no cable, university cracking down hard on downloads so dude puts two seasons on a disc and I'm happy. Problem: all the files are .mkv and they wouldn't play in my DVD player. Prior to that I bragged so much about my DVD player because it could play .avi files before most could.

To the point - I searched for nearly and hour and a half for an adequate software that would convert what would become my most favorite of all time into something I could use. After trying one "free trial" software after another I finally downloaded a trial of SoundTaxi. My computer was a little slow at the time (give me a break, I was poor, in college, and it was 2006) so the conversions took a while. HOWEVER - SoundTaxi came through in a clutch situation and I have been rolling with Omar Little, Bodie and 'em since. I even bought the paid version.

Now whenever I have to wipe my hard drive (it happens) or build a new computer one of the first things I install is SoundTaxi Professional because I know I am going to need it and I can always rely on it. Heck, I just used it last night to convert some Walking Dead episodes to .mp4 format so I can play them on my Xbox. I have yet to fail with this software.

SoundTaxi Professional helped me graduate from college - I think.

Conclusion:

Clean, reliable software that I simply will not be without.
