Is this market site "safe"?
Just read about this site elsewhere. Anyone have any knowledge about it? Haven't tried it myself yet.

Hi Glow!

I looked at this site and read the legalese (well, some of it!), and the only gottcha I found is that they require you to accept updates through their service -- or something like that. I read it a few days ago and might not be remembering right.

I like to choose when and if I update my apps, so I didn't like that clause. Otherwise it could be okay. But you are relying on other people's uploads (as I understand it) for the content you download, which may or may not be wise.

Did you sign up? What do you think??

No, I haven't tried it yet. I'll see if the occasion arises where it seems like a handy option, then may give it a whirl.
