The Android Market is a terrible mess. Nearly every app I looked at had nothing but spam comments. Literally things like, “Follow me on twitter at @blah” and “Ladies, hit me up on AIM at blah” which is embarrassing and sad. Makes the entire thing feel like cheap garbage. When you add the fact that nearly all the apps are free, and most are a UI mess, it doesn’t come off too well.

When all you care about is free lunch for all, don't be astonished when you're served shit. This may sound harsh, but if you think the Android Market is going to pressure Apple to relax its iron fist around its App Store walled garden, don't hold your breath.
