> It's the ability to sideload apps that is reason for the high piracy rate and less willingness to pay for apps. This hasn't been true at all in my experience. Whereas it's very easy to jailbreak an iOS device and set up a 3rd party app store with pirated applications, having to manually download and sideload APKs on Android phones makes it much more difficult to pirate apps. In fact, I know several iOS users who have pirated all their apps, but I don't know any Android users who have.
