Okay.... so I purchased slingplayer mobile for my PPC6700 about 8 years back. I used the software with a legacy Slingplayer that has worked like a charm since day one. Over the years I reactivated the license on every win mobile phone I bought, i.e. the ill fated Samsung 830W, the Sprint Mogul (6800), HTC diamond, Touch Pro and finally Touch Pro 2. During that time I switched to an unlocked version of the software so I would not have to wait the 2 days to get a new activation key every time I reloaded a new rom on a phone.

Now I finally upgrade to a Sprint EVO and I discover that I will have to pay $30 again to be able to attempt to use slingplayer mobile with Android.

So, what do I do..... I purchase it for $30 from the Marketplace and install it. Considering the time that I used my win mobile license and the fact that I could have stuck it out with the TP2 for quite a bit longer, I see no reason to blame the Slingbox manufacturers for recouping development cost on the android platform or for them to make money.

IMHO Nuff said !!

You miss the point.Tech support told me and others we would NOT have to buy a new licence/software.It is called honor your word or fire the people that give wrong information to the customers.I am not the first nor the last to post about the lies.Go read the other guys post.Same issue same statement from sling to him..;.;

Exactly my thoughts. I have been slinging for years on many different winmo phones so its really no big deal to me to spend the money on the android version.

Re: Moving from Windows Mobile to Android
I too had bought the Windows mobile app from the Sling store. Needless to say I am very disappointed the license won't transfer over. Very poor execution on slingmedia's behalf. They should at least offer a version that you could get directly from the slingstore that has a key field or simply tie the key to the logon credentials. To begin with I think its crazy that you have to buy software to use their device in which you paid hundreds of dollars for. I like my slingbox don't get me wrong, but not at the price of another 30 buck. To me that's insulting to have to re buy something!
