Advice on free app and user security

>>Skip the email / reg code thing. Don’t do it. Skip the back end database,
you don’t need it. 

Interesting thread. One factor not mentioned yet is the possible subversion
of your intent, Bill. Case in point: when my daughter was teaching she
started a blog with free teacher resources of her own creation. The blog
became quite popular. And within a year a number of other sites popped up
offering her content and other material (presumable free) for sale and
without attribution. (She left teaching for other reasons and has since let
her blog lapse.)

My thought is your minor requirements of an email, reg code and tracking
create a very small barrier to entry that shouldn't stop legit educators or
students. But it may be just enough to keep those looking for an easy, fast
buck from subverting your work. 

My 2 cents.
