Comment on AppGratis Is Nothing More Than A Black Hat Marketing Company

>Google’s job is to make sure the top results are the best results possible.

So all that AppGratis had to do was make sure the apps they promoted were not crappy. Review the submitted apps and factor in (genuine) votes by end-users. This way they would have added value to the ecosystem.

If Apple/Google banned such an app from their appstore, I would have been pissed.

But I understand. It is their marketplace. They make the rules. There is no free market and no democracy. Those were just ideals, long forgotten and never to be seen again.

I would continue typing and go into a rant on how the Appstore is a monopoly. But I know it isn't. And even an oligopoly doesn't make me happy.

(I haven't used AppGratis.)
