Androids’ march against pirates

17:18

Tim Bray also says that “the best attack on pirates is to make their work more difficult and expensive, while simultaneously making the legal path to products straightforward, easy, and fast.”

Right on Tim, but…

Google’s Android Market lets you install paid applications only if you are in one of the 13 supported countries. The “legal path” is neither “straightforward, easy, or fast” if you don’t live in one of the 13 countries that are supported. Maybe instead of focusing on developing anti-piracy services, Google should add more locations to the paid Android Market.
