My general impression is that Microsoft don't want to make a PC app store, because they'd rather let a 1000 flowers bloom and for the software developers to market them freely. Also known as 'commoditised' shareware where different apps compete with each other.
- staunch 17y agoThey're not mutually exclusive. Steam is awesome, but it's also nice being able to buy physical CDs at Game Stop. I wish there was an open way to get apps on the iPhone, but I wouldn't want to App Store to go away either.
