DivX Offers Video Software for Free

DivX is taking a page from Opera's playbook, celebrating its fifth anniversary by giving away its $19.99 DivX Create Bundle at no cost. The package features tools for the creation of DivX video files, including encoders and the ability to make interactive menus with the DivX Media Format.

The free Create Bundle offer is valid only for one day, and requires an e-mail address that will be sent the DivX registration code. The code is not a trial and will never expire, the company says. As DivX 6 is not yet available for Mac, only Windows 2000 and XP users can take advantage of the deal.
