Hi All, Sorry for starting yet another post on this subject. We're trying to decide on whether to go with LVL or just un-protect our apps altogether (currently using the copy protection feature). So my question:
* Are you copy protecting/DRM/LVL licensing your apps? Some of our concerns include: * ROI on time spent with LVL code/testing/bugs versus actual increase in sales * lack of copy protection in other markets Some info we found in other posts: * piracy breakdown of a popular app:http://keyeslabs.com/joomla/ projects/auto-app-licensing/152-a-global-piracy-heat-map * some have mentioned going free (ad-only) - some of our apps are niche apps, therefore this strategy will not work well for some of those apps. On a side note: we liked the deprecated copy-protection feature because it involved no extra development work and seemed secure enough to thwart a "casual pirate" from easily sharing an app with all of their friends. (another side note: we have incurred the wrath of tons android1.5 users after removing the copy protection feature - proceed with caution if you do so) any feedback would be awesome! thanks, Chad -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
