It's basically just a licensing program, where you can upload files/software and sell it to other people without risk of getting it leeched. You would need to have a PayPal account to buy things, but to make the transaction safer, you would pay the seller through paypal directly, and then the seller would issue a key to the email from paypal. The licensing software will have a messaging system on it, so you can get details about the software being sold and so you can snap proof of transaction and stuff like that.
The licensing program will be totally free, contain no ads, and have no fees. However, to ensure security, your programs must be obfuscated.
I'm doing this mainly for educational purposes, and I understand that there is already software out there that will do this, but it is limited. So, the question stands, would you use this software?
