Out of interest what do people think of the AndAppStore scheme at http://andappstore.com/AndroidPhoneApplications/licensing.jsp ?
I'd happily work with the Google guys to get either this, or a similar scheme integrated with Market to offer a higher level of protection against the apps being run by unauthorised accounts. I also think that protecting the APK file isn't the answer. Hence why the AndAppStore scheme focuses on runtime protection as opposed to file protection.

I googled for my game today (to see whether it's being pirated) and immediately found it on rapidshare. I did report the abusing referral link but can't report for other guys' apps. BTW, guys, I've found *many* games on many websites... P.S. I didn't bother to protect my game because anyone with a rooted phone can pull the game out of his device and there are quite a lot of them.
