Google has blocked access to Movies for "superpolzovateleey"

Google has introduced an "improvement", which caused some dissatisfaction of users of smartphones and Tablet operating system Android, who took the opportunity to create a "super" system (rooted device). Now when trying to connect to the service Google Movies in this system informs users: "Unable to obtain a license for the [film name] (Error 49). Google Support reported that blocking is intentional, since the device with the root are not supported due to limitations associated with copyright protection. " ("Failed to fetch license for [movie title] (error 1949)." Google Support is advising that the block is a deliberate move on its part as "Rooted devices are currently unsupported due to requirements related to copyright protection.")

Such a move is somewhat puzzling, because Google Android platform is positioned as an open system. Moreover, iPhone users to jailbreak can download movies from iTunes. Also, service will no longer be available to users of the operating system Android 2.2, which also used the opportunity to root for the installation of third-party ROM. Those who use the OEM supply of the Android OS will be able to use Google Movies. Despite the fact that Google sends to the problem of copyright infringement, in fact, such a move could be dictated and the desire to reduce the fragmentation of the operating system, which creates a fairly significant challenge for application developers.
