Sort of like TRISM. you know, you create a game, it becomes a hit, you become a millionaire - and then with all that money come options and opportunities - such as investing it (and living off the interest) and shutting up about piracy.. honestly once you've made a significant amount of money why would it be so painful to release free games? Why does everything have to revolve around more and more and more and more.. money moeny money.. kind of like U2 complaining about loss of sales - it becomes insignificant after you're rich enough to not care!

What is so difficult to let players buy a game with their email address and unique iPhone ID. So the game is tied to the phone and you ever change your iPhone you'd have to contact customer support. That way you could fight piracy without stupid pay-to-play games and without stopping the production of Rolando 3. I don't see the point.

Thanks. So Apple DOES typically store the content on their server—it’s just that they serve it in advance to everyone who might buy it, rather just to purchasers. Interesting. (And certainly not cheap on Apple’s part.) Good to know. Thanks.
