I like to start conspiracy theories. The latest is; Is Apple preventing iOS app developers from rewriting their apps for other OS's? There I said it, Apple is a corporate bully.
Anyone else believe this? It's not hard to see this happening, why else would Windows 8 app store fall short?
Maybe, of the millions of apps out there, only a few are Really useful and original.
Yes, Seriously, How many apps are Really going to be used by a person in their lifetime?
And, How many facebook or other apps that do the same thing do we really need?
I'm betting that the app fever has cooled, that over the last few years app developers have realized that "their" app isn't the best thing ever and only the serious apps are even being made.
Break it down, How about some stats on how many iOS apps haven't been downloaded in the last year or how many have only been downloaded less than 100 times in it's lifetime? Might explain why Win8 doesn't have as many
OR
Apple is a corporate Bully!
