Right, the problem is with the Google Market, Amazon Market, et. al. It's not with Android as a platform (or operating system).

The problem is that Google copied the "App Store" idea for software distribution that Apple created for their iPhone. Instead, they should have gone with the same idea that Linux distros use: The product vendor is responsible for distributing the software for the product. That would look completely different from what we have now, but it would be a more natural fit to what Android really is.

Also, you could have made your point just as well without the ad hominem.
