Appbucket.net?

[Android_Freak]

Anyone use this? It looks like you just pay $9.99 a year and get unlimited downloads of paid apps? Is that right?

[budone]

Not unlimited, you are allowed to download one app PER DAY, on that plan.

It's a pirate / warez site...

Why would a Verizon representative be providing links to, and essentially promoting, warez sites??

You do of course realize that the guys running this site (formerly androidplaygound.net* - a very well known warez site) are simply stealing these apps and reselling them, with not one penny going to the developers, right?

*These are the same thieves that constantly spam the Market comments sections looking for subscribers.  They usually post their "ads" under the name "Anonymous" - There's your first clue.

Don't believe me? Apparently not being as the link I provided in my first post was deleted.

Well then, would you take the word of the developers themselves?

Go to the source, the Android Market Forum, and do a search for "appbucket.net" or "androidplaygound.net" and see what they have to say about these sites...

Edit: make that "androidplayground.net"

(fat fingers missed the "r")

Haha... the post got removed...but they left and edited the other persons post... nice

Makes you wonder doesn't it?

Maybe Google & Verizon have a "special arrangement" with these software pirates, (think Microsoft & China).

It's better people are running stolen software than none at all, kwim? 

Besides, they don't seem to have any desire to put a stop to these guys spamming every Market app Comments page 100+ times every day.

Next thing you know the in-store techs will be adding bookmarks to these sites on all new phones,

...right after they install ATK.

Cob, they read your post because they went back and deleted the copy and pastes. LOL. I do not think that those with the wireless employee tag are paid employees. Either goes by how many posts you have made or they are moderators.

[budone]

Those with the Verizon tag are employees. MODS and ADMINS have an Add'l tag.
