Because not everyone agrees with TreKing's opinion. I happen to, but there are plenty of others who wish to enforce license management schemes. LVL exists for them. Nobody is pointing a gun at your head to use it. (and if somebody is, cough twice in a reply) > And why does the Dev Guide say to use it? It doesn't, any more than it says to use ArrayList, the NDK, or Traceview. You do not have to use every platform capability in every app. > Seriously, I don't understand why the developer's guide would say > to use it if nobody does. It doesn't say to use it. It says that is available to those who wish to use it: "Android Market *offers* a licensing service that lets you enforce licensing policies for paid applications that you publish through Android Market." "Any application that you publish through Android Market *can* use the Android Market Licensing service." Etc.
