Rockbox mail archiveSubject: Open Source aspect not being taken advantage of by manufacturersOpen Source aspect not being taken advantage of by manufacturers
From: mhujm--- via rockbox <rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se>
Date: Mon, 16 Jan 2017 13:25:35 -0500 There are still so many Sansa Clip Plus-like clones out there (AGPtEK A12 on Amazon, for example). Haven't any manufacturers just snatched Rockbox for free? (I understand that they would have to do some work to make it work on their hardware, but why would they go to the trouble of writing / buying their own functionality when such a full-featured open-source alternative is available?) I lost my last of 3 Sansa Clip+, but i am NOT about to pay a $50 scarcity premium on eBay for the few remaining collectors items.
