Amazon already tried that on Android and failed. Why do you expect them to succeed on iOS?

Failed? Dude, it's going strong.

I mean, it exists -- but does anyone actually use it?

[tragictrash → warning26]

Amazon is cranking out the fire tablets and sticks. Tons of devices use it.

[warning26 → tragictrash]

Sure, Amazon devices use it. On those devices, it's not a third-party app store, it's a first-party one.

The question here is specifically about if anyone can be convinced to use third-party app stores.
