Re: C-ApiSRO - Sirius/XM Satellite Radio for PocketPC (PPC)
Wasn't talking about the developers of the free players. I helped r-Capi with the post-captcha problems with C-ApiSRO back in March. Used SiriusWM5 before I found C-ApiSRO.
The greed I referred to was on the part of the coalitions between Sirius and their partners who developed and sell the paid apps. Notice how seamless the changes to the streaming processes are for the paid apps?
The original developer of SiriusWM5 worked with Sirius to get his app running. Suddenly, he can't enhance it any further nor can he say why.
r-Capi dropped C-ApiSRO like a hot potato about the same time.
Sirius also leaned on the developer of StarPlayr to cease and desist.
It wasn't because Sirius didn't want players out there. After all, more listeners = more subscriptions. They and their partners just got greedy.
I have contacted the current developer of SiriusWM6 and am capturing network traffic for him. Since I am running a bone stock ROM, have done hard resets and re-installed nothing but the .Net framework, the app and the sniffer, I have to imagine that the folks who are having success with the app have something else on their phones, either by virtue of running a cooked ROM or from something else they have installed that has "upgraded" a dll or two.
