It's bad for developers though. You have to stick with older API's when developing Android apps if you want to target the largest audience possible. As we speak already ~75% of iOS users are on iOS 7[0] and I'm quite sure it'll be close to ~90% in the next 2-3 months.
For me as mobile developer, this is one of the reasons why I'll keep developing iOS apps first and target Android second.
