Ask HN: Is Android Market the only way to sell apps?

What country are you in? (and what country is your target market in?)

Handango sells out-of-marketplace Android Apps - http://www.handango.com/info/Partner.jsp?storeId=2218 .

I'm from the Philippines. I don't have a specific country for my target market. My apps are mostly productivity apps. I'll check out Handango. Thanks!

You could follow the Spotify model, have a free app but require registration via a pay website to enable.

I could try this but I can't distribute my free app through Android Market. They only allow apps that use Google Checkout for any form of payment processing. But I can just exhaust all possible channels to distribute my free apps and have a site where they register and pay via PayPal (PayPal is the simplest and easiest way for me to receive international payments right now). Thanks for this idea!
