at some point you have to ask yourself...how many updates can you make to an mp3 player app?
its supposed to play mp3 files.

theres only so many fixes and updates you can do to it.
if you make 10,000 updates for the next 10 years...what exactly are you doing to it?
adding ads?
adding backdoors?

I stopped 5 years ago. I looked what happened after that but rolled back in horror.
