If you are distributing your app independently of the Google Marketplace, then the type of DRM you use is up to you. If you use a license number that is tied to the Android ID, then you will have to set up some means for the customer to send you their Android ID. Then you will have to be involved with giving them a new license number when they change phones. Or you could use a license number based on the Customer's name, which you also display on the screen. That way the customer can change phones without involving you, but you have no way to prevent that customer from sharing his name and license number with someone else. Or if your app involves periodic communication with your server, then you could use the Android ID to check for proper licensing at that time, but you would still have to get involved when the user changes phones.
