I think a lot of that comes from the iTunes gift cards that everybody seems to get for Christmas, Birthdays, etc. I purchased my first app with "real" money a month or two ago for android.
- vmarsy 13y agoEven if it's true, I don't think developers care if the money they got at the end of the month comes from a gift card or a credit card. Google Play gift cards exist too, I don't know if you can buy music with it though, if not it's logic that iTunes cards sells better.
- warfangle 13y agoNobody knows that Google Play gift cards exist. I've been using Android since I got rid of the iPhone 3G (circa Nexus One), and this thread is the _first_ time I've heard of it being available.
- nl 13y agoGoogle Play gift cards have been available less than a month in most of the world. I'm not sure when they were first made available in the US.
- fpgeek 13y agoGoogle Play gift cards in the US go back to August 2012, IIRC.
- wallflower 13y agoTo clarify the parent comment, I see iTunes gift cards for sale at grocery store checkout lines. Perfect spontaneous purchases. Where do you even buy a Google Play gift card?
- aka_butters 13y agoI see them at Safeway and Target here in Mt. View all the time. My location might be relevant though :)
- nl 13y agoIn Australia I've seen them in BigW (kinda a Kmart/Walmart equivalent).
