When you buy from Apple, you buy using Apple's checkout process. Why ever would anyone think that Android would use anything but Google's checkout process?

- Xuzz 16y agoBecause Android is the "open" system, and Apple is the "closed" one?
- yequalsx 16y agoYou're right but there is a subtle difference. iPads and iPods require the use of iTunes which pretty much requires an account. You have to do this in order to use the devices. Apple pretty much has a system that once you are using their devices you've got an account. So when a user is searching for apps they've already got an account. There is no extra hurdle at that stage.
