Daring Fireball has an interesting article discussing the pros & cons of the various methods of distributing Mac apps. <http://daringfireball.net/2009/09/how_should_mac_apps_be_distributed>
In response, someone else posted a complementary idea, having the app offering to move itself to the Applications folder if it is launched from any other folder. <http://www.potionfactory.com/node/251> In previous posts to this list, I have always recommended the people distribute Mac apps on a disk image, but after reading these, I am seriously considering going to just a plain zip file. I'm not sure about offering to move an app that isn't inside an Applications folder. I have sub-folders inside my Apps folder and I know other people use the user's Apps folder instead of the general Apps folder, so there are more considerations there. Still, interesting to consider it all.
