My question is, he uses the unique identifier of the phone. You can have the app on up to 5 phones, I think. My wife and I have iPhones and my daughter has an iTouch. We use our iTunes account for all of them and legally put the apps on each. Using his system, it seems like it would break when one of the others use it.

What's the solution to that? Free Apps aren't enough and Apple isn't helping me.

So Will- how would you address the theft? Turn a blind eye? Seems to me the only devices which lose their privacy are those of the thieves. So Will- how would you address the theft?
