From memory at the time, 4th Screen were selling around 1 million page views per month. I have posted below the latest figures from their site**, that figure now stands at 6.2 million [...]

My Comments on the below: I think the lack of the trusted iTunes model is a big deterrent too. Being able to seamlessly sync your movies, videos, music and apps through one trusted billing model such as iTunes is what is missing with Googles Android Marketplace.

My Comment: What many people overlook here is the iTunes model.

The process of getting an application approved through the iPhone App Review team and into the App Store can be a mysterious one for application developers. Many complain the app review process takes too long, the rules for acceptance are vague, and the reasons for rejection are too subjective.
