The problem is the 'App Stores'.

Think of them as retail outlets, in a mall. Do you see shady stuff going on there?

Would 'The Gap' sell porn to increase profits by 15%? Of course not. And for obvious reasons.

We shouldn't think of 'App Stores' as some kind of truly open marketplaces, any more than a shopping mall is.

What we need is just more independent means of distribution.
