Not necessarily related to gmail.com. The article says it's not known where the data is from. Just happens to be all @gmail.com accounts.

Sounds like someones management sucks. These are things that should be worked out/agreed upon when signing. A lot of bands will just run in signing anything because they think they are rock stars now. This happens in every business. It's the business man screw job. George Carlin talked about them once.

Crytek Plans Free Version of CryENGINE 3 75

Posted by Soulskill on Tuesday April 13, 2010 @03:16AM from the everybody-gets-an-engine dept.

Develop reports that Crytek, makers of the Far Cry series, the Crysis series, and the game engines behind them, have plans to release a free-to-use version of CryENGINE 3, the software's latest iteration. Quoting: "Unreal vendor Epic Games and Unity have both seen their user-bases mushroom overnight since launching versions of their own engines that, while tied to different royalty rates, are completely free to download and operate. Now the CryEngine 3 group has revealed it wants to tap into this thriving market. The firm's CEO Cevat Yerli told Develop that Crytek already gives away a CryEngine 2 editor to the mod community, but explained that Crytek's expansion strategy stretches beyond. 'We have a very vivid community of users and modders and content creators, and usually that's a great way of unlocking the engine,' he said. ... 'So far that's what we've been offering for free, and it's easy entry into the production environment. [But] we do want to make a standalone free platform that people can run independent of CryEngine that will also be up to speed with the latest engine.'"

I think the Simpsons showed us that that won't work either.
