That's a bogus argument. A large percentage of iOS apps have never been downloaded. Another very large percentage do the same thing as other apps (how many fart apps do we need?)

Windows store is so small, no one want write for WM8 because of small market, market can't grow because of no one write apps for WM8. Vicious circle.
