Everyone keeps saying it is better then the iphone market place. Well I bought a droid not an iphone. I was never going to by an iphone because of apples market practices.
The 15 minute refund policy is just plain robbery. If a developer spends weeks developing an app why should we only get 15 minutes to try it. I have gotten apps that had many features and 15 minutes is not enough time to try an app out like that. I guess I have about all the apps I need though so I can stop buying apps on the market. The 15 minute window is just to support the developers and the market's cash flow. The more apps that people buy and cannot refund the more the markt makes for Google. I think soem of the people who are for the 15 minute window may be developers who want to be able to spend an hour and through an app together and put it on the Market because they know some people will pay and download it and be unable to get a refund. This will only make crapware grow.
For customer service and not developer service, I think the qindow should be extended to a week because sometimes I will get two or more similar programs that are similar and compare them in side by side runs and keep the one I want.
If everyone who is against the 15 minute window will boycott and not by anything on market for 30 days or until the window is made 24 hours or longer again, this will hurt the markets cash flow and hoepfully will show them it was a foolish move to shorten the window on the peoplee who pay their paychecks.
If developers are for the 15 minute window it is because they are worried that their crapware will not be well received and ppl will wnat a refund. If a developer creates well made product that ppl will want and keep after purchase then the return window will not matter for them.
I was on BB before I got a droid and some of the developers for BB actually gave you a full 30 day trial of their software. Now the software was more expensie like one app for $30, but that allowed me to fully test the programa dn i ended up purchasing the full version. If this would start on the market than developers would create better products and users would not request refunds as much.
