I recently switched from PC to Mac, and is starting to repurchase applications for OS X. I google apps first, before I go to Appstore. Why? Appstore is full of crap. I can't find what I need. If I type in "text editor" in the Appstore, I can't easily find the best text editor for OS X. However, if I google "best text editor for os X" I get meaningful results. Steam has the advantage over the Appstore in that most apps in Steam are "worthy". They are large, complicated applications worthy of your time and money. The Appstore is suffering from the weight of a thousand little "Hello World" applications, with little or no value to anyone. The Appstore has potential but the filtering and presenting is not where it needs to be. As a user, the Appstore model of "appear free but charge me in-app purchases later" sucks. It only serves to annoy me. It's not that I mind paying $50 for software. I just want free software to be free. If you want $50 from me, stay in the non-free section. All in all, I've spent 5 times the $$$ on Steam and web downloads than on the Appstore, during my first 2 weeks as a Mac owner. And Google first page hits gets the $$$
