I noticed on the tutorial that in order to use the Gracenote Android SDK
you need to enable the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
permission. Why is this? I've also heard that apps implementing the Gracenote SDK
have been delivering location-aware push adverts to their users. I can't find any explanation for either of these in the documentation.

The support page suggests using this SO tag to ask questions, so I was assuming that some Gracenote employees are watching this tag for support questions. – benwad Jan 24 '14 at 17:42

In fact I just looked at Gracenote's support forum, and they said they're migrating their entire support over to SO: https://developer.gracenote.com/notice-moving-stack-overflow – benwad Jan 24 '14 at 17:44

ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION is only needed for the MusicID Sample Application, and not the Gracenote SDK itself. Your app may not need that permission, and the SDK will work just fine.
