> The App Store is littered with garbage, and for the greater good, maybe there will be a few casualties, but that's the price of strengthening an emerging marketplace
Do you imagine it staying this way or eventually opening up? The reason I'm asking are the parallels made w.r.t. the web in general. There's plenty of garbage out there too but I don't think anyone would argue that a 'curated' web would be better. I see the app store in the same light.
If Apple want to check for malicious/incompetent code etc I can get behind that but if I want to put another fart app out there, why shouldn't I be able to? I doubt anyone would find it (or care) but getting hobby projects out into the open is part of the learning process to making something better next time.
