It's a brave new world where Apple are the ones who are too cheap :) I see your point but I disagree, in part (I was assuming the shiny touch UI was a given factor in both). It will be interesting to see how this pans out. The reason I think that iPads vs a-iPad-a-likes are different from iPhones vs Android Phones is the way they are sold. Phone shops often push Android phones for other in-shop reasons. As I said, we will see. My guess is that at some point someone will make a store to rival iTunes and Amazon. Whether it is Google, Microsoft, Facebook or someone else will be the interesting bit. Who knows, there maybe room for a Spotify-like startup in this space that Android can really get behind.
