I agree completely. The price of a chip goes towards covering parts and assembly - unless foundmy.com are putting serious time and effort into laboriously hand-editing each and every key, the $42 pricetag cannot be justified. Saying "well, he has the software and you don't" just doesn't cut it.

Its like, if you needed a screw to fix your car, and that screw cost $1 to buy, and some guy comes along offers to sell you it for $300 simply because he knows you need it...

^ That's a f*cking rip-off, mate. It's exploitative. The bloke selling that screw is a slimy, greedy, weazel-faced prick! And that's exactly how I feel about the twats at foundmy.com right now.

Yeah I feel the same and I also don't have one of those drives.

I also share this view, this is ridiculous!

Im not paying some random guy on a site with bad rep for a 42 dollar one off service for 2 minutes work
I would be willing to give the jf people money yes or the people who bring us the firmware i also would be happy to pay this found my site for some tool to get the data but 42 dolars for 2 minutes work and a fucking email that is a complete rip off ..

Looks like Foundmy's money making venture is over before it has even begun.  Seems redboxmodds has already removed the DVDKey83 Retrieval Service.

Yep, seems to have been dropped from redboxmodds, but usbxtractor.eu haven't followed yet.

Another team will release a free solution
Fail for THX

QUOTE(XbotWiz)

Good News!

I'll keep this short and sweet but basically we WILL be releasing a FREE solution for the Liteon 83850c within the next two weeks (19/8/09), our new team (still recruiting too) have already successfully obtained the key from the drive and flashed back to it with no issues at all on twelve 360's,

This is our plan:
We will be releasing this solution totally free as it should be (charging for this service is a pi*s take), before we release this out to the public we are going to ask for around 50 "testers" who will be given the chance to get this solution early and report back to the team of any issues that we need to fix before release, please send me a pm to be a tester, we will have 25 places open for xbox-scene members.

The ONLY thing we ask in return will be for donations IF and ONLY IF you think we deserve a donation AFTER you have used the new tools, there will be no forced payments or silly fee's to get your keys!


We will also be trying to contact c4eva to see if we can come to some sort of agreement so we can release the solution in with a slightly revised iextreme 1.6/jungleflasher, if not we will do this without them as we already have our own software in beta which offers the same features as JF.



Iriez forgets to mention that there are MANY other teams out there that have the talent, experience and contacts to match the work already done except we will NOT charge for it simple as that.



Important:
If this thread/post gets deleted you can find us over on a few other well known 360 hacking sites....


Look forward to working with some of you.
Team XWizX

I would love to say i told you so Iriez.

Oh and i dont think we all need educating by you.

The true hackers will do there work now. You can stop your advertising.

[ps2moduk]

It was always going to happen, to be fair i thought it may have been a few days longer and that foundymy may have reaped some reward but i doubt people will be forking out $42 to get a drive done today when you will be paying $0 to get it done in a couple of weeks maximum.

One thing i would stress is that whoever comes out with the first free solution gets the reward they deserve and every modder out there should give a small donation to them.

I do not mod that many (repair tons but very few want the flashing done) but i will be passing on a donation to the team that brings out a free alternative. I am sure a lot of others will do the same.

All 83850c drives ill do ill donate 50% that I make wont be much tho 5-10 dollars nz donations lol only about $6us.

What we will be hoping to do is use all donations to form a larger team and use every penny for the development of new programs and to ensure all future releases are kept FREE,

But again, donations will be optional and only if you like the solution we are going to be offering,



P.S, got a threat already  

[hetster]

i actualy feel quite sorry for THX and there spokesman iriez now.
they left it way too late to deny any links with foundmy.com. in fact the more they openly advertised this site the worse the conspiracy theories got.
i fear that anything that THX does from this point forward or anything that iriez says from this point forward will only fall on deaf ears. and the ears that do listen will be very sceptical.

its a shame that all the work THX has done over the years is going to backfire so badly because of a few comments from iriez and lack of comments from THX themselves.
its funny how a few wrong words or misplaced words and completely misjuding the scenes reaction can have such a drastic effect.

i do feel sorry for them becuase i can allmost garuntee that this new team (however talented they are or wether they are just copy and paste merchants) will probably recieve in 24 hours worth of donations more than foundmy.com will have made in total. i hope THX funds dont dry up completely but i fear they will.

this whole situation remionds me so much of the marcan / bushing / waninkoko battle for the wii..within 24 hours marcan went from wii demi god to a total T**T by the community for comments made and thinking he owned the scene..

whoever comes with the solution i really hope THX decides to appoint a new spokesperson lol..one who understands the scene from a scener point of view.

[newboxflash]

im not sure on this, ok id buy the software so i can then flash the drives for my mates etc not that ive seen the latest drive to date

but $42 for a one of key is to high for me, if your desperate for the hack then you've gotta pay simple

if not wait like we all did when the lite on drive was released i had mine 4-5 months then the good news came



id donate to jungle anytime - great service
