But I think there lies the problem. If you leave it to "someone" or to "some entity" then you get a one-sided impartial judgement of what constitutes "good".
Your list is full of big hits. This means that the market responds positively to that. I know people who hates Facebook and would never use any form of Social Media. I respect their view but it doesn't make them "right" as far as the big picture is concerned.
- MartinCron 13y agoIf there's a choice between "someones" and "some entities" and I can find a set curated by critics whose tastes align with mine, that's great. Right now, the app store is essentially a discount retailer: you can trust that the things sold there range from excellent to "probably not criminal". Sometimes I just want to to go Nordstrom, pay a little extra, and browse through a small selection of things that I can trust aren't total garbage.
- yawz 13y agoI think most (if not all) people would agree with that sentiment. That's why I humbly think that Apple should concentrate in improving their search and maybe implementing better profiling or a better review system. Just because App Store is a mess doesn't make casual, arbitrary and impromptu policing right.
- MartinCron 13y agoThat's my thought exactly, if there were different "stores" to choose from, then they wouldn't have to make this kind of casual arbitrary impromptu policing. The current middle ground is bad for everybody.
