I'll believe it when I see it, seems very unlikely though. BGR is on a role, this has to be the second or third horrible article I've read from them this week.
I was annoyed at the sheer length of time it took to receive a formal invitation. They built up hype way too early. By the time it was available I didn't really care anymore, I had moved on to other things out of frustration. How are you supposed to successfully launch a site in which you interact with friends but not let anyone in (at a decent rate)?
Nobody wants to carry around another gaming device in addition to phones that are completely capable of doing the same things. 3DS' 3D abilities seem more gimmicky than useful. Putting classic titles on the App Store and Android Marketplace (that are no longer being sold or generating revenue) seems like a no brainer to me.
I would like to see data on developer profits from paid/ad based apps though. I wonder if this may be due to more free apps on the Android Marketplace.
It's frustrating that privacy features like this have to be secondary thoughts. Sharing your music should have been an opt in feature, not something done automatically.
