If this is the case, why don't you just distribute them as zip files
(which are the same as apks, anyway), and put them on a webpage.  Then
your users can go and download them to their SD card.

You can write an app which does this automatically: goes to the
download website, and downloads the apks to the right directory, this
would be simple to whip up in a night's of coding, anyway..
