This seems like saying that Costco is starving the poor because you have to have a membership to shop there. It's true, you do, but there are plenty of other stores selling the same products that don't require the membership. You don't like Costco's rules, you can go somewhere else.

Archos did this; they couldn't use Google's marketplace on the A5IT, so they made their own market. Now it sucks because they have no clue how to program, but the fact that it's possible shows how open Android is.

Don't like Google's rules? You can completely remove all traces of them from the code they gave you.
