And how does Flurry know what ALL developers are doing, given that they can only show stats for the apps using service? And how does that play into the fact that Android is growing faster than iOS? The Paypal X SDK doesn't seem to be limited if you want to distribute your app through another means, such as SlideME. If you're not distributing through the Android Market, I can't imagine that you'd be constrained by its limitations. You could even develop a free app on Android Market without the ability to do in-app purchasing, and then, if they want to buy something, redirect users to an alternative apk download from anywhere else that isn't limited by the market. If you don't like the market, then don't use it, or look for alternatives. But the market today, by far, gets more eyeballs than other distributors, that I can assure you.
