Developers Hesitant About Android Market?

Reuters:

“We have significantly cut our investment in Android platform, just like … many others,” Gameloft finance director Alexandre de Rochefort said at an investor conference.

Rochefort said the company has cut back on investment mostly due to weaknesses of Android’s application store.

“It is not as neatly done as on the iPhone. Google has not been very good to entice customers to actually buy products. On Android nobody is making significant revenue,” Rochefort said.

Of course the iPhone’s App Store makes more money than Android Market. If anyone is surprised by this, they’ve been living under a rock. I think the money is what keeps most developers from leaving the platform over Apple’s stifling policies.
