Back in early August, I wrote up a short review of Album Art Grabber. It’s a simply app that was created by My Little Big Apps for the sole purpose of finding your missing album art for all the music on your Android Phone. To my knowledge, Album Art Grabber is the only app on the Android Market that does this and frankly it does an amazing job. Every so often, I check the Android Market to see how the some of the apps I have reviewed are performing. I was shocked to see that Album Art Grabber had only sold between 500-1,000 copies. To me this is simply astonishing. Less than 1,000 people have been willing to spend $2.00 on an app that makes you life more simple and your music more beautiful. Ok, so Album Art Grabber is not for everyone I guess since not all of the 3 million+ Android users use their device as their main music player. We’ve heard gripes from Android developers saying that the Android Market doesn’t produce enough revenue for them. Keep in mind that the progress and success of the Android platform is largely tied into how successful and profitable the Android Market is.
So I encourage you, if you use your Android phone to listen to your tunes, head on over to the Android Market and puck up a copy of Album Art bragger. You won’t regret it.
Note: My Little Big Apps did not contact me or ask me to write this little rant. I personally believe that they have created a great product that more people should buy. We spend $1.50 on a Coke from a vending machine. Why can’t we spend that on an app that we get to keep?
