This is not ironic. I too consider myself pretty computer savy having a degree in computer security. I figured once I bought the membership I would have to pay for individual downloads still. So no it does not automatically appear to be unlicensed. With that being said I did not buy a membership and here is why, just a word of advice to avoid this problem in the future.
The site appears licensed, its connected to the offical site, so all is well right? No. Once clicking on the actual site you will see that the site itself has spellign errors. Something a major company would not allow. Second, and this is what stopped me, when you click on the paymet icon, it only allows Visa( I''m not sure of a company who doesnt accept Master Card), third there are spelling errors, fourth it asks for your bank name ( No other pay site does this, so I would keep a check on your credit report for those of you who had purchased an account.) and most importantly whenever dealing with a payment online you must ensure the web address begins with https. If it does not it is not secure and anyone can access you account informaition without much trouble. If you cannot find a way to pay that begins with https, then it is not worth your money.
To the original poster, I am sorry you got scammed. Thank you however for posting you expierience as it was the final step in ensuring myself that this was a scam. Please do keep an eye on your credit report now.

I was also victim to this rip off and I read all of the relevant fine print. I am a solicitor and there was absolutely nothing about this website or the service it was selling that suggested that it was or could be pirate software - indeed I followed a link from Nintendo DSi's official page to get to this website, which suggested to me that it was genuine and legal.

Somebody pays to join a site that sells illegal copies of video game files and he is complaining of being ripped off?
