Google rebrands Android Market

[mcfar45]

Google has announced that the Android Market will now be called "Google Play". This brings an end to Android being the centre of their music, book and movie stores and brings them closer towards being a content provider.

Personally I like the idea and the name is growing on me.

What are your thoughts?

Google...all the....things...?

This actually looks interesting but dont a lot of things already do this Or is that just me being caught up in technology?

I personally like where Google is headed with this.
They're stepping up their game and competing with companies like Apple, who have their own music store.

I mean, the thought of having everything interconnected to your Google account is cool, but scary at the same time. If you ever loose your password of get it stolen, that's a whole web of things lost, and now with their music store, your credit card information could be lost as well.

Google is making innovations in the right direction, from my perspective.

But...

Android Market sounded so cooooooooooooooooooool...

I was pissed when google rebranded "Froogle" to google shopping... or is it google products... either way, I got over it.

It's not like they haven't been running a payment service for years now or anything...

oh wait...

Already updated, not much more in it for australians, though. The same thing, but with daily 25c apps.
