So RussB is looking at the summary of all these apps and declaring them crap? Sounds something like the flood of bogus app reviews in iTunes put there by people who haven't even downloaded the apps. But he has a point - In a (somewhat) open catalog like the App Store, we as users desperately need a better filtering mechanism than the one iTunes currently has. The answer isn't to restrict app entries to someone's definition of quality or marketability, but to provide tools to make the user's decision making process simpler. I think there's a startup opportunity in there somewhere.
