MS Market Place Cracked Already
And then there was Marketplace.........
XDA member Chainfire has already figured out how to take the chains off of the MS Market Place. According to Chainfire "It took me less than five minutes to circumvent this "protection", and get the ability to save the CABs the MarketPlace app downloads to a different folder. As the CAB file is the same for every downloader, you could just give this CAB you payed for out to all your friends."
Chainfire said he is not going to do anything with this or publish how it was done either. With only spending five minutes figuring out how to crack MS Marketplace it makes one wonder what the future will hold with MS Marketplace and how secure is it.

The information can’t be shared here. But it’s “out there” and is easy.
If I PAY for an app, I should be able to install it at my leisure. Not like I’m using it and didn’t want to pay to have it on my device. Like if I want it in my Sashimi or UC configuration. Without having to return to “Marketplace” every time I need to install it.
I’m sure they’ll try and make this harder to do in WM 7. I like WM 6.5 and WM 7 has NOT won me over yet.
