Google Now Blocks Movie Rentals on Rooted Android Tablets
In the past few weeks Google added movie rentals to the Android Market, with prices starting $1.99 to rent a movie. This would be a great and convenient service which would have a lot of people excited, but unfortunately Google won’t let it work on rooted devices.
The Android Market help pages now state that if you are using a rooted device, movie rentals will not be available.
You’ll receive this “Error 49″ message if you attempt to play a movie on a rooted device.
