They saw the billions Apple and Google make with their APP stores, so yeah, this is their answer.
I'm kind if curious though, how Microsoft will respond to a project that will replace their APP store with another one (completely full of free APPS of course, like freeware is today).
I wonder if they will prevent that somehow, and if so if the USA/EU will fine them again for billions of dollars/euro like they did with Internet Explorer. :+)
