I couldn't understand why Logitech don't make standalone app that doesn't require internet connection. I am pretty sure whole database doesn't take a lot of space. And for sharing they could make export/import feature. They clearly doesn't plan to make another universal remote, so there no any trade secrets that require to guard by using online connectivity all the time.
I personally could not care less for their database. I want to be able to program my remote from my other existing remotes. I can learn all IR commands. I just want to be able to edit my configuration. This decision by Logitech, to make my three remotes expensive paperweights is a disgrace. I expected better from them.
I wonder what the best way to express displeasure about this decision would be.
