I don't know if somebody else has already said the same as me, but here is my own two cents in a thread of my own.
Is it only me, or does anybody else totally hate all the useless apps that are in the Marketplace? And furthermore multiplying by the day!!
Basically, I am referring to any and all rss newsreaders (i.e. search "CNN" in the Marketplace, and see results), as opposed to the real deal, (search USA Today). This also includes sports team newsreaders, auto manufacturers, retail companies, magazines, etc. etc..... They just pull from the blog, or rss of a website, am I wrong?? I just don't see any real value in putting these "unofficial" apps in the Marketplace.
If I want an app revolved around a particular company and/or website, I am always in search of the OFFICIAL thing. I just do not care whatsoever with this swamp of a Marketplace, loaded with useless stuff.
50,000 apps, of which probably 1/50 of them are genuinely, good apps. Pathetic.
It is simply a quality not quantity thing with me.
If anybody wishes to disagree and set me straight, please do.
Until then.......
