On: Three easy ways to fix the App Store. And one really, really hard way.

The whole "we need a review board because otherwise VERY BAD THINGS WILL HAPPEN!!" is just a scare-tactic to justify Apple's draconian attitude towards developers.

Android is open, and nothing bad has happened in over a year. BlackBerry and WinMo have been open for years and nothing bad has happened. Quite frankly, if you believe that Apple line, you're a fool.

I'm not justifying Apple's review process, I'm just saying bad stuff has happened on Android before.
