On Android, you do have competition though. There are app stores from Amazon, Samsung, and F-Droid. Not to mention, you could go direct to consumer and list the application's installer for download directly on a web page.

I agree that there's the opportunity for competition, I just don't think we are yet quite in a situation where the best store wins.

I believe we are getting closer with the recent lawsuits against Google though, which is a good thing.

It's obviously still miles ahead of iOS.
