You don’t own your apps | Slashgear

What EA (Electronic Arts) has revealed to millions of unsuspecting app downloaders around the world is this: when you pay for an application in the mobile world, you don’t actually own the app itself, you just own the license for the app – and your ownership is not indefinite.

Makes you (re)value physical media a bit higher. I think I’m going to enjoy some 25 year old 8 bit Nintendo games this weekend. Guess we won’t be doing that with Angry Birds in 2037.

Interesting to notice how software as a service is sneaking up on us in the disguise of apps…

Microsoft Research wants to automate your house, introduces HomeOS — Engadget

Ever wondered if you could control your house’s climate, security, and appliances — along with your PCs and peripherals — using Microsoft software? That day may soon dawn, as its Research arm has started testing its home automation software, called HomeOS, in twelve domiciles over the past few months. The budding system views smartphones, printers and air conditioners as network peripherals, controlled by a dedicated gateway computer. The project even has a handful of apps in play, which perform functions like energy monitoring, remote surveillance and face-recognition. This growing list of applications, available through a portal called “HomeStore”, will allow users to easily expand their system’s capabilities. So how does it all work out in the real world? Head past the break, and let Redmond’s research team give you the skinny.
