Android Market (not Store)

Android Market

Android has published the first screenshots of their future App Store, which they prefer to call “Market”. Seems they want to highlight their differences with Apple and to strengthen their open and free side with this different name, which for them means “an open and unobstructed environment”.

Reinforcing Android openness, they compare it with YouTube. Developers will be able to upload apps as easy as a video YouTube upload, and these could be free or paid apps.

Hope they get a better quality sieve system than Apple on their Store Market.
