Nokia appear to have seen reason and implemented a much needed change in policy in the Ovi Store regarding re-downloading content. Up until now customers’ purchases were tied to the device they used to purchase the content, not their account. That is if a customer bought content on their N97 they couldn’t just download the content on another handset as it was tied to the N97.

Now though purchases are tied to the user’s Ovi account so that purchases can be downloaded at liesure again and again if need be; once the content has been paid for once there’s no need to re-purchase it. It was a bit of a strange setup in the first place and certainly not a system that would have endeared itself to many customers, but it seems Nokiais getting on the ball and sorting it out. The Ovi store in general has had something of a shaky start, but Nokia do seem to be getting a ahndle on it and pushing it forwards … eventually.
