Not in the least, I was only making a suggestion to a small software developer, who happens to be a reader of our site, that maybe he would want to try to get his software located in our affiliate store, which it actually is, to get that software into the eyes of more customers.
Making money was not the reason why I, or our other Contributing Editors, volunteer our time to bring our readers news on this site.
You are correct though benjimen, I am Anti-Handango due to the very reasons stated in this article. The Windows Mobile development market is pretty tiny and I would rather see our developers flourish in an environment where they can actually make money and in turn bring us more innovative and better software.
What Handango is doing here is harmful and discouraging to developers and I deeply apologize if us pointing that out is offensive to anyone. The point of this article was not to offend people, but to instead make our readers, who are also customers of these developers, aware of the current uphill battle they face.
