You're late to the party

Google play is just the android market renamed.

Still have 0 android devices. So....

I don't care for the name change. Yeah, it's got music and movies in there, but there's a lot of other non-play type software as well. And the name rolls off the tongue like a lead brick dipped in toffee.

Now I'm stuck trying to imagine what a lead brick dipped in toffee would be like....

Without making it sound dirty <_<

It's nice... but was the name/icon change seriously necessary? It's annoying to me.

Because we're Google! We want our name in everything, even if it sounds bad! We're the George Foreman of the tech world!

I'm honestly tired of Googles giant ego. It's not undeserved, but it's poorly used. Google Play? That sounds terrible. And it doesn't even make that much sense.

They are also like George Lucas, except they have no guy who goes "Yay" or "Nay". (ie, Lots of ideas. Not all good. Not all bad. When given supreme control... makes lots of bad ideas into reality.)

It just popped up in my browser today. I was intrigued by the idea of cross platform connectivity for anything i purchased in the Google market. It seems to offer something that Apple can't. (Books, Movies, Music on any device you can log in to your Google account from.)

That said I haven't purchased any sort of media from Google. Ever.

I would be interested in this as well and it would certainly sway me from having the latest ipad at the top of my list of tablets I would like to own.

The sad thing is that all the games (one of the biggest things I would like to have) aren't available unless I own an android device. How lame. They add this new thing, called Google Play at the top of my pages, and then I can't play at all. I could read, listen, or watch perhaps, but certainly not play.

. . . maybe they're hoping that pressing "play" on a movie counts.

It doesn't, Google. Give me some games!

Lemme play Android games on my computer! Set that up, you'll get THOUSANDS more customers!
