said by fAcEtIOUs:said by rosco35:they could start with an IP block restriction...it cant be that hard to figure out sprint's ip's.
even a username/password page could be inserted with generated passwords for subscribed phone numbers sent to the phone via text message..
It isn't just Sprint.
»www.mobitv.com/channels/ They have this product available for multiple vendors. One is Palm WiFi. That is, the connection could be coming from any HotSpot anywhere. IP blocks won't work there.
And anyway, their system is just feeding Real Player streams:
<a href="rtsp://live.mobitv.com:554/X-CDMA.sdp"
type="video/3gpp">station name</a>
Where 554/X could be 554/"any # 1 to 9999"
and "station name" can be any characters. And if your device supports 3gpp it works.
good points, it will be challenging to secure their product.
