Here let me say this right off the bat...

COREPLAYER 1.0 DOES NOT PHONE HOME
COREPLAYER 1.0 DOES NOT DISABLE ITSELF

All thanx for the posts... and I want to clarify what are REALLY doing rather the having others state what they 'think' we are doing. But first I need to be define what our goals and objectives are first...

We have are creating much more then a media player... When I left DivX I had designed not only their website but their Community as well... and as catchy as it seems the social aspect of it is playing a larger goal of what CorePlayer is all about.

This directly relates to not only the player frontend but how we manage the backend accounts. With that being said... in later versions what we are doing it rolling out other services that tie directly into the player, your device and your account.

Some of which are

CoreSYNC - Is at the backbone of several of our core technology offerings that will allow you to sync metadata (or other things via out open API) to other 'linked' core account users.

This is also in line with other features we are adding like Seek and Share, which allows you to not only search for other CorePlayer users in a local LAN but WAN users you have either give permission to you or you to them.

CoreTunes - Is our integrate desktop media manager. It allows you to sync you metadata to your core account, web services, 'linked' core players.

So we have an obligation to provide a secure network for not only the services but the permissions within that service. But after all we belive in empowering our community, so after all of that.... if you do not want to use the 'other' aspect of the player and just want a GREAT multimedia experience then great...we give you the ability to do what you want and how you want to do it.
