Request: JDownloader 2

[RichardEb]

You have already added JDownloader to the poll. Does this include JDownloader 2? If not I'd like to request it.

Are these the same app just a newer version?

Are these the same app just a newer version?

Yes and No. It's the same program. But you can install JDownloader and JDownloader 2 together on your PC. I think JDownloader 2 is a completely new developed version of JDownloader  and not a normal update. But both programs came from the same developer and are meant to do the same things.

Newer version. I think there is no point of having multiple versions, just the latest stable release.

I'm fine with JDownloader 2. I just wanted to make sure that JDownloader 2 will also be supported. (JDownloader 2 is still marked as beta version)

[Justin Chalfant]

If we add JDownloader it will just end up being whatever the latest supported version is so no need to add any additional options in the poll.

I have JD 2 and it does not say it's beta so the beta stage of JD 2 has actually passed already. They just haven't updated their website, I think.

Does JD2 still require Java to run?

As far as I know JD is a java application itself, not just relying on java on some of it's functions.
