Looks like the "Related" / "Similar" tab with a list of similar apps
is being rolled out in earnest. Projecting into the future, it would
very much seem that smaller titles, vying for attention, will try to
attach themselves to household titles, by virtue of this list.
I am sure this is being launched with all the best intentions, helping
discoverability and stuff. However...
Not that it's a terribly long way any more, or ever has been, but this
should accelerate The Race To The Bottom(TM) quite a bit, in the mid
term anyhow. I'll predict we'll see quite a flood of KIRFing, as well
as attempts to game ratings through the app comments section, trying
to get on the list at a high spot.
Bummer, how established Android devs become part of a future lessons-
learned that way.
This of course is just my opinion. Discuss.
