i wish a kid of some rich parent comes here thats willing to give out 100,000 for this small app

[J_Marley]

alright, seriously...

[J_Marley]

I read that too about the $1 per usage. Erica sent me the link. Look, if you guys want to keep bashing me for this, go complain to someone else. And the people probably getting rich would be the people at Gracenotes. If this were actually able to be sold once the SDK came out, we would have records of everyone that contributed because I was planning on using paypal. The fact that an admin hasn't posted here yet or responded to my request for monitoring the account means that I will not go forward with this unless there is some sort of accountability. I do not want distrust among the forums. I thought that if enough people were interested this might be a great thing to have for all of us. On the other side, I agree, this is an insane amount of money. I myself I love to be able to just create a database instead of do this, but quite frankly I know next to nothing about programming, just modding and even that I tend to screw up frequently . For now, if anyone could program something that would work similar to gracenotes, I wouldn't mind freeing up a few terabytes of space to host the server for everyone. I am open to IDEAS, not sarcasm and criticism. So if you have an honest opinion that isn't about how stupid you think this is, please post. And thanks to everyone that is being mature about this.

i think the way is via suscription and pay about .20~.30 per request.
1 dollar is just too much.

I'd donate about $25 bucks for the cause, but i don't think we reach the final amount of money.

How are they blocking us? can we not fool their servers into thinking we are a legitimate ericsson or something?

I don't believe paypal uses the same thing for non-profit donations tho.

Utterly ridiculous. I know your hearts in the right place J_Marley but this amount would never be achieved. A more logical approach would be to petition Apple to include this as a feature of the iPhone. This type of licensing would be a drop in the bucket for them.

yea...i'd really like to see a working LISTEN app, it's pretty cool and useful at the same time.

[Sparblaze]

On her site it says R.I.P. "Listen". I don't think she can afford it. I agree with Eurisko on this one.

[AKA_Ben]

I'd be willing to throw in a few dollars provided we get a nice looking interface and a properly sized HS icon.

Then again - couldn't she set up the agreement now and sell Listen through iTunes SDK? We're paying either way aren't we?

[loco_dos]

I have only used it a few times, but if it work... sure why not?

[GimpedT]

Did anyone get to try it on 1.1.3? or is it still on Installer?

[CoolBito]

It stopped working before the 1.1.3 release, I believe...

That is true, it stopped working quite awhile ago. I was going to see if with support we could try and resolve it, but from the looks of it, the initiative is on me alone. I will be discontinuing my efforts to revive this app at this time.
