VR Doesn't need a special storefront or any of that bullshit. Just sell the god damn hardware. I'm so sick of companies trying to carve out their walled garden

I'm so sick of companies trying to carve out their walled gardens. Fuck them all.
- SeanBoocock 10y agoI suspect the hardware is very low margin; Palmer Luckey has publicly said as much. I doubt that Facebook would have been interested in owning a low margin hardware business that at least for the first few years will sell to a (very) niche audience if there wasn't a plan for additional revenue channels. A storefront provides such a revenue source as well as a curated experience when and if VR breaks into the mainstream.
