Is there a way for an application to know whether it has been
downloaded from Market?

I'm thinking of distributing an application through Android Market as
well as through a private web site, that contains both a free basic
version and a paid Pro version. For simplicity of maintenance, I would
like to distribute the exactly same apk both through Market and on my
web site.

After the user has downloaded the free basic application, and they
want to upgrade to the Pro version, they should be presented one of
the following:
A) Present a link to Market to pay for and download a license apk to
unlock Pro features.
- or -
B) Present a link to our homepage to purchase a license key to unlock
Pro features.

If the free basic application had been downloaded from Market, the
user should be presented option A, otherwise they should be presented
option B.

Does anyone see a way how to achieve this?
