Yongzh emulators gone from market?

[crisiscorex]

I'm not a real whiz when is comes to all the android application infringements and all of that, but does anyone know why Yonghz emulators were removed from the android market? Was it because it gave links to Roms?

I have been wondering the same thing. Just went looking for it to email the developer about a problem with a rom (Breath of Fire II) and could not find it anywhere...

Does yongzh have a website/email address that he checks?

I would suggest he move all his apps to the Amazon app store for now until a better solution can be figured out.

I have new news. He is considering hosting his apps on SlideMe other 3rd-party-appstores. Also he will make them free for a limited time (for example a week) to avoid existing customers from having to pay again.

That's what I would suggest. I've got both NESoid and Gensoid on my Tab and love wasting my adulthood the same way I wasted my childhood.

but isnt the slideME market really unupdated? or is that the developers choice not to update the app on the SlideME market (im not very good when it comes to third party markets either)?

 

[abluejelly]

Probably Dev's choice. My understanding of how app repositories work is that, unless the dev changes it or the site runners take it down, it stays in whatever form it was in.

Hope Yongzh gets things rolling on his own, I loved that GBA app.

Come on people, paid apps are paid apps even if removed from the market, you can't upload them to file sharing sites and put links on here.

^This.

Like it or not, copyright infringement is illegal - and DMCA is being taken seriously. They're even considering upping the ante to federal felonies. Serious stuff.

I've no idea, but think you'll likely find that the game emulator may be legal (if not violating reverse-engineering terms) it facilitates use of illegal roms in general. That - or thinking to that effect - is going to be at the heart of this issue.

There's already a link to more info above on this.

As for our site - AndroidForums.com will have no part in illegal activities, and the site rules you agreed to when you signed up specifically prohibit linking warez - and if you aren't the Market and your name isn't Google, Amazon, or the dev, then links you create here are exactly that - warez.

Please don't try to think you can be more clever than Google's lawyers on this at our site - repeated attempts will lead to permanent bans.
