The funny thing is most people just think this is a name change. By clicking “Accept”, you just agreed to share your mobile number, subscriber ID, name, address, location data, browsing habits, and anything Google wants from THEIR OS to THEIR affiliates which could be potential buyers or mergers, or third parties who provide services to Google like payroll, ISP provider, etc….. They say they will not share your info to third parties. All that means is that I can’t call up and ask for it. But if AT&T called and said I’m thinking about merging our so and so divisions. Google would be happy to provide them with statistical data showing profits, affiliates, stocks…..

Declined, want refund on all apps bought and they can have them back,
As Google bought Motorola they can have all them back as well. . . .

Will get apps from alternate ‘stores’

Good Bye Google

I agree, “Android Market” worked, so why change it….Google just wants their name on it.

It wasn’t just a name change. Google now pings your credit card for $1 for downloading free apps. I purchased a double CD the other day and was charged 6 times. I called Google cutomer service and was told they cannot help me. I was told I would have to deal with it online….that was 4 days ago, still haven’t heard from anyone on this matter. imo, the new format is sh!^…If I wanted this, I would download my apps thru Amazon. Fu@# Google play or whatever the he!! they plan on calling it.

It’s not the name change it’s the new term and conditions.

Such poor naming… Google Play sounds like a child’s play program. It is not what I would expect 1 of the most respectable app market to be in.

Its like they are targeting it to children. I’m guessing they want to get away from the android name for some reason, maybe it has something to do with licensing and they don’t want to pay for the name droid/ android.

Haha! Now if they absolutely must ruin what is already perfect, well I think your idea is great!

Wow, that name is utterly retarded. And it’s not just for sake of fearing change, it just sounds disjointed. Previously a conversation would go like this,

Person1 “Where did you get that app?”
Person2 “I downloaded it from the Market.”

Now it’s,

Person2 “I downloaded it from the Play.”

Of course you could just refer to it as “Play” and not “the Play”. But both sound very stupid compared to “the Market”. Man, the Play sure has some cool apps! Play is not working right today. Something about using a verb to name it just makes you sound like retard when using it in reference. There aren’t that many new apps right now on the Google Play. Did they enlist crack addicts to think up this new name?
