App store - Apps are locked - DRM!!

[Consultant]

I just found out that it's incredibly simply to circumvent the DRM of the App store. Let's see - it took < 24 hours to 'break' App store DRM.

anyway....

FAIL. Only "works" for the few apps which the developers didn't put a proper lock on.

Don't know how accurate this information is but for those who are interested in reading:

Apparently, this MacWord claims that apps are NOT DRM protected and that there is NO computer authorization, per se. Just that the app, itself, must be authorized.

If I understand this correctly, I can load my MAS software on my fiancé's laptop and then use it if I ever needed to.

That kindof makes sense based on what we are seeing...
