Completely agree. This might explain why Apple didn't act on some of the "issues" raised by the OP:
- "Junk Apps": As someone mentioned below, this one's really unreasonable. "Junk" is subjective, and even if it's not, who's to decide which app should be removed?
- "[App Reviews] are nearly always of terrible quality": Again, what is Apple supposed to do here? Let the developers chose which reviews should be displayed for their apps? Impose a minimum number of characters for a review? Non of this makes much sense to me.
- "Ringtone Apps": I really, really don't get this one. Maybe it makes sense from a developer point of view, but for a user point of view, I don't see what's wrong with apps prices decreasing.
- "Customer Data is hidden": Uh? As a consumer, I'm happy about this one.
Concerning the App Review paragraph, I can't say much, except that the complaints seem more reasonable.
Anyway, I can understand the OP's opinion, but I think it's unfair to say that Apple doesn't care about developers. They probably care about developers (they do realize that the app store and app developers are central to the iphone's succes), but they care more about end users. And if they have to make a choice, they'd probably try to satisfy consumers over developers.
