I have no problem with iAP and I have no problem with shareware.

However, at least when I get shareware, I know they are going to pull the rug out from under me 1/4th the way through. As a result, I usually don't play shareware because I know I will be unsatisfied, I know I wont enjoy the experience.

Now shareware is "free" and I can't find any actual free games, actual free applications. I can't find anything that isn't trying to use or manipulate me.

The set of applications that were made because someone wanted to solve a problem and share the solution are obscured by wolves in sheep's clothing. I can't trust anything on the app store. The signal has being completely drowned out by the noise.

I hate, truly truly hate, the current condition of the android market. My phone is only good for making calls and playing the Simon Tanthem puzzle collection. I don't understand how you could defend it. I don't understand how anyone could defend it. It's so openly hostile.
