Just as an update to this. I was informed this morning by the market
team that the developer below... and I believe all his accounts have
been removed by the Market team. It also appears that several other Spam
apps and developers have been removed recently... so my guess is that
the Amazon Market and other pressures are causing Google to put some
effort into fixing the Market. It's overdue... but I hope people cheer
them on and hold the "I told you so's" :).
Sincerely,
Brad Gies

I have submitted our app to 10+ appstores and they have all been a waste of

I'm going out on a limb and assume that these other app stores did not have
have the size, user-base, brand recognition, and trust Amazon has. Or did
they?
Well, that may be true. And many of them were not very well executed.
But I feel that there is only room for one "main" appstore like there
is only room for one "main" social network (read: Facebook). You don't
search for your friends on Orkut or Friendster anymore because most
likely they will all be on Facebook. If all the apps are on the
Android Market, then that is where people will do their search. Amazon
can't just have 70% of the apps if they don't add any extra value that
Android Market doesn't have. If Amazon are too be successful they need
to:
- Block the Android Market by not bundling it with the devices (both
their own and making deals with other phone manufacturers).
or
- Launch a web app-store that indexes both Android Market and Amazon
Appstore
That way people either can browse both or be forced onto the Amazon
one.
We have 1.3 million downloads now on Android Market. No other
appstores has given us over 10.000 downloads. But still we do have
submitted our app to the Amazon Appstore just in case it turns out to
be a success :-)
Personally I am a fan of a 99$ fee to keep away the spammers and junk
apps, but I guess it is too late for that in the Android Market
case...
