Hi François, and thank you for your report. In fact, all of the online
features of Software Center (recommendations, syncing of software across
computers, purchasing software) require an account with Ubuntu SSO, and
so in the UI we refer to it as requiring a Software Center account. I
think this seems correct. I'll close this bug, but please feel free to
reopen and comment here if you do not agree.

Many thanks,
Gary

Title:
  Confusing description of the online account

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When running the synchronisation option for the first time, it's
  required to connect to the online account. However, it's not clear if
  this account should be created or not if you already have an Ubuntu
  One account. Ubuntu One is never mentioned. So it's a bit confusing. I
  think it would be easier to simply say that you need an Ubuntu One
  account.
