Hi arnouf, It is certainly an issue, but I doubt that the piracy rate of Android is any different than that of WinMo, iPhone, or any other phone SW market. (I would be happy to see evidence either way.)
I have a rooted phone and have 50 paid applications, none pirated (150+ apps total). The reason I rooted my phone is it ran out of space on internal memory after about 20 app installs, and I had to uninstall some of the apps I had paid for. >:( Needless to say, that was an irritating experience. --Ed On Oct 1, 1:22 pm, arnouf <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi everyone, > > Today a customer told me that it was really simple to hack a paid app > present on the Android Market.
