No doubt.
This launch explains why Angry Birds is the free app today. Most of the time, the free apps are a waste of time; usually low rated games. Expect to see mostly that. Every now and then, a really good app appears; but that's rare. When the appstore first launched in the US (Mar 2011), the free app was Angry Birds Rio. |

This is bad news for the Kobo Vox. Kobo prospers in markets that don't have an Amazon presence.

If I want to login in the app it forces me to link my account to amazon.es instead of amazon.com.
What implies changing the account from one store to the other? |

Not sure if this is how other apps stores work (dont think so)
Amazon app store has very little ratings/reviews on apps, does it only show this info for the country you are in (just released in uk so not much there) I am sure when I check reviews in Google Play (as example) it shows reviews from everywhere people have used the app Quite disappointed with this so far |
