Hi, I've just moved to a Mac from a PC. I only use MP3TAG occasionally and went to install it - it says it's a 7 day free trial which suggests I bought the PC software version as I've used it for a year or two. I don't have an email with any license number in it - I'm simply wondering if I can find out my license for the PC and if it is transferrable (the PC no longer exists).

Ah, thank you, @MotleyG . That explains my confusion. I don't use it often - just tagging my own field recordings. I nearly forgot that I had it on the PC at all!
