I don't see salary being the biggest deterrent. Companies just don't want to train entry level workers anymore. They rather just hire someone overseas with some experience.

If there is a clear path for students to transition from school to a stable career, you would see a big increase in enrollment, but US businesses are more focused on short term gains instead of investing in the future American workforce.

You do not pay for 2 GB a month

You pay for the right to use the Internet on your mobile device for a month up to 2 GB. It is a big difference.

If carriers want they can charge people by the MB and then you would have the right to use it for whatever you want, but most Americans don't prefer that business model.

Companies make mistakes all the time and Google has its share of flops. They know that there are problems with the market and are trying to improve it.

Because developers were complaining about the return policy, Google changed the return Window from 24 hours to 15 minutes. They released the web version of the market as a way to help make new apps more discoverable.

They soon will face competition from Amazon and it will put more pressure on them to make improvements.

There is lots of money to be made in policing the market. Apple polices the its own App Store and it is much more successful than Google's.

Developers want a market so that makes their app easily discovered and their copyright will be protected. If they don't get this, they will focus more resources on iPhone development.

Customers want high quality apps without worrying about filtering through spam and malware. If they don't like the experience, they will buy an iPhone.

The only people who benefit from Google's hands off approach are spammers and criminals. Apple's approach maybe overreaching, but it benefits high quality developers and that is where they will flock until Google gets it's act together.
