wow, this is attractive. However, Calman has a horribly expensive subscription model. I think I'll see if SmallHD can provide a similar service with my main calibrator, LightIllusion's Colorspace.

Bill,

Depending on the fine details of this partnership, SmallHD may by agreement in the contract not be allowed to use any other company's Calibration software.

Rand,
Thanx. But, that's ok. I refuse to support ANY kind of software license that uses a subscription model. Particularly, an unreasonably expensive model.

Bill,

Yeah, they either get you with a one time payment Perpetual license or a Subscription Plan that's high enough that you probably could have gotten someone to come to your home and professionally calibrate the monitor for you.
