Hey guys! As always, if you want off this list, just hit reply and slap "remove" in the subject line, and accept our apologies for taking your time. We'll take care of removing you.

You will only receive sporadic product announcements for Rogue Amoeba Products. We won't be mailing you day and night or selling your info (not EVER), because hey, we hate spam too.

To everyone who's still with us, thanks for your continued support!

It's been several months since we've sent out an update, in large part because we've been working so hard on Audio Hijack Pro 2. It's finally here, and it is a MASSIVE update. Let's talk features - there are oodles! We've added the oft-requested AAC recording, as well as Apple Lossless (ALAC) recording. We've added ID3 tagging of recordings. We've added a Silence Monitor, to split based on silence or remove it all together. We've added in-app file organization in the Recording Bin. We've even made the Application Enhancers (APE) portion of the app optional (see Instant Hijack). In short, we've added...a lot.

Key New Features
-Elegant New User Interface
-Now records to AAC and Apple Lossless (ALAC) formats
-Recording Bin for Organization and Previewing
-Built-in CD Burning
-Split on Silence/Remove Silence
-One-shot and Recurring Timers
-Automatic Timers to wake your computer (10.3-only) and launch Audio Hijack Pro
-Integrated Audio Input Recording
-ID3 Tagging
-Parallel Effects Processing
-Over 35 major new features in total!

In addition to being a huge update, Audio Hijack Pro 2 also the first paid upgrade we've ever had (in just under 2 years of business). Up until now, we've given away all updates to our software for free. However, this update is such a huge change and took so much time, that we believe a $10 upgrade fee is fair. Hopefully, you will too. If you purchased AFTER May 1, 2004, the upgrade is free, and your code will work automatically. We're not intending to make this a common occurrence, and bug fixes will always be free. I hope that sits well with people - let us know what you think.

In addition to Audio Hijack Pro 2, we released Detour 1.5 last week, and are working on some new stuff for the future. But first, we'll be taking it easy for a few days after the dust settles around this release.

So download Audio Hijack Pro 2 and Detour 1.5, and give them a whirl, then purchase or upgrade. Email us with comments, feedback, and problems or just go tell your friends and enemies about this great new update . You guys are the reason we can eat at night (Have we said thank you lately?), and your word of mouth is our best form of advertising.
Enjoy!

P.S. I must issue a special thanks to Flying Meat and Unsanity for providing us with download mirrors. Please check out their sites for more great OS X products.
