This method returns the status of the subscription to MSN Direct services.
Syntax
BYTE GetSubscriberStatus();
Parameters
None.
Return Value
Returns a BYTE that indicates the status of the subscription. It can be one of the following:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
0 |
The MSN Direct receiver is not subscribed to MSN Direct services. |
1 |
The MSN Direct receiver is subscribed to MSN Direct services. |
2 |
The product key has expired. |
Remarks
An MSN Direct product key can expire either because the customer did not receive the product key, or because the customer stopped subscribing to MSN Direct.
In the case that the customer did not receive the product key, the application should inform the customer to visit this Microsoft Web site by using a desktop computer, and then update the home region and resend the configuration information.
This can occur because the product key was sent when the customer turned off the FM radio, when the FM radio was out of reception range, or when the FM radio was in reception range but was located outside the home region.
A monthly product-key message is sent to the host device. This message is of type REGISTRATION and can be typecast to a RegistrationMsg object. This monthly message can be ignored as long as the customer is currently subscribed to MSN Direct services.
