Google Developer G1 loses paid-app access

[scrannel]

Is it possible to link a purchase to the IMEI number, or is this too cellular related as well?

Hmmm...

Hmmm.... oh rly? Ya Rly!


They'll probably take it off once they figure out how to implement DRM into the apps. Which I don't want.

well he actuakky was linking to the news article, it wasn't directly to the thread related to it.

it does suck, and it won't stick they just have to figure out a better protection for apps. but who knows when that will be.

The news article is a link to the post in the forums, when you click on add a comment it takes you to the forum post.

There's an ANDROID_ID (as mentioned here and here) that one could use but then you tie purchases to a specific device.

There's no need for another thread about this.

Post your complaints in the thread that has already been created to cover this exact issue.

*Short Answer*

Yes they were directly linked to the forum post here when they were reading the main page new report about it.

*Long Answer*

Ok, lets say the OP is reading the main page (like he/she was) and finds an article they want to comment on. They browse to the bottom of the article (Or read it to the end) and then they press add a comment. Androidcommunity.com does not have a comment system setup on the main page that is separate from the forum, so the OP would be brought to the forum post that matches the main page post.

You will notice the comments in the forum are shown on the main page and the OP could have had his thoughts/comments/suggestions listed there for the whole world to see.

In my opinion there was no need to create a new forum post as this one has a harder to find title that has nothing to do with the situation.
