>You simply can't ignore Android, the biggest mobile OS and its doesn't get starved if iOS developers earn 30% more.

You really can. It's only "biggest" in sales, but not all those sales are to people buying apps and living the "online" life. In most interviews/surveys developers say that the make little money on Android sales compared to iOS, and that they prefer ad-supported apps so that at least can make a buck with free (which only was for high volume apps).

On the other side, there are tons of iOS only apps and games, that ignore Android altogether, including very successful examples.
