Some people want just the movie without the menus and other parts....also, if you use a backend (like mymovies) to drive a front end (like Media Center), then ripping to mkv lets TV series work on an episode bases, with metadata info downloaded from some webservice. That's why I'm using mkv.

Why might I need MKV over an ISO file?

No.  You need to install both 32 and 64bit if on a 64bit pc Sent via

Thanks for the confirmation.  Any reason not to install the 64-bit version?

I was usign powerdvd only because it plays mkvs too.  I bought it to
play Blu-ray.  So, if I get ffdhow or Lav then I can use WMP to play
mkv?  I have been ripping to MKV with the HD audio tracks, but
powerdvd doesn't seem to output them, but rather some down
sample...whatever it is my receivers don't recognize DTSMA to DDTHD.

100% worth it.   I store everything in bit perfect.  What chipset?   And
why do you need powerdvd for mkv?  FFDshow or even better LAV will
pass hd audio streams flawlessly.

Is this worth $50?

The beta no longer works.  I have been using it to rip TV series to
MKV files.  I play back with PowerDVD 11....it doesn't seem to
support DTS MA or DD TrueHD in terms of keeping those tracks. If it
did, then I'd probably get it without question.  (Or maybe the
problem is PowerDVD not recognizing those tracks?).  But without
that, I'm wondering. The only other way I know to get MKV is
handbrake, and it seems to insist on adding compression and I don't
really want to be doing that.
