So... we all heard of how the App Store works. If program is required to pay first, then download to iphone.

Interesting Questions to know...
1. Does those program contain full version download after paid? Or After download, it still requires a registeration key or some sort of program that only allow the APP to run on that iphone only by iphone serial number?

1a. What happened when someone restored the iphone, and need to reinstall those paid APP?

2. Since full version of paid APP is installed in the iphone, that means, if we can jailbreak it, and exact the APP from the iphone, and share it on the INSTALLER?

But APPLE is not dumb, I think the APP store program is tied to the iphone, and able to exact information on the iphone and send back to Apple Server for identification, if an APP was paid and installed via APP Store, that iphone's unique identification is stored in Apple server, even if the exact iphone is restored and connect to APP Store to download the same paid program, it will skip the charge and allow the same iphone to re-download the program.

Just interest to find out how our unlock community is able to share and get the APP Store programs for FREE. =)

Any thoughts?

Come June most likely new version of itunes and apps will have its own section and be stored on PC/Mac like songs/ringtones/movies hence when you wipe a phone and restore you can simply put it back on via your iTunes library!!

If purchased via the iphone then it will simply sync to your itunes (like music) and thus it is copied to your PC/Mac

I think that the App Store will run much like the iTunes Music Store on Mac/PC/iPhone/iTouch. It will require you to sign in using your iTunes Store account, and bind any application purchases to your account name using some type of DRM. Need to sign the iPhone/iTouch into the store with the same account name to use that app on another device.

Hm.... if a copied of the APP is stored in PC/Mac, then we can find a way to exact the APP from PC/Mac/Iphone, and install the APP to any iphone outside of APP STORE or Itune.

This way, we can have more control without going through ITune, personally, I DO NOT like ITune at all. =P

I am just exploring the possibility of avoid using the APP Store, yet we can still get all the latest Dev APP that released in APP Store for FREE. =D

I think 2.0 will be relased soon for beta tester, and it will show up in here soon. CAN"T WAIT!
