Hi, It was provided after a lot? of feedback from devs requesting such a feature http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/07/licensing-service-for-android.html. Its optional, you decide if you want to use it as with most api's. Its provided to assist you with licensing if you decide to use it, so you don't have to spend time rolling your own. It doesn't prevent piracy - nothing can - but it can help make it a bit more difficult. It does work apparently, but you are advised not to just copy and paste the example provided. Perhaps a bit more research in this forum will help you from wasting your time.
