I think convenience is the number one factor why people buy so much music on and apps for iPods / iOS devices. Especially the iOS apps growth is amazing - it looks like before the app store is three years old, users will have downloaded more apps than music, even though Apple has sold music since 2003 and music runs on all iPods and iOS devices and Mac and Windows and other MP3 players (http:// www.asymco.com/2011/01/16/more-than-60-apps-have-been-downloaded-for-every-ios-device-sold/). > And since there's no iTunes-like app, the > sharing of "non-consumables and subscriptions" would have to be handled by > the application itself anyway. If I was Google, I'd tie in-app purchases to your Google ID, like everything else on Android. :-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
