100s of thousands of App Store items comprise largely of crap than appears to be there only to push the app counter where it needs to be for Apple's marketing purposes. If Microsoft is to release a two-click FartApp build wizard, I'm sure they'll manage to catch up quite quickly.
In other words, I have this faint sliver of hope that Microsoft will get their App Store right, in which case I'd gladly take a set of 99 decent apps over Apple's wide selection of abysmality.
- shinratdr 15y agoThis is a pretty cynical and ridiculous view IMO. Why does it have to be some nefarious move on the part of Apple? Isn't a much more logical reason that iOS is attracting a lot of attention, and the vast majority of apps for any platform are bad or amateur? Also, if the WP7 store is any indication it will be sparse and most apps will be of low quality. It's not a choice between vast and terrible and small and focused. iOS has plenty of great apps too.
