Samsung launches Premium App Store for Android users

Browsing for top-quality Android apps can be a convoluted process at times – if Apple’s App Store and Google’s Marketplace were night clubs, the former would have a heavily guarded velvet rope entrance whilst the latter would allow trainer-toting ruffians free-entry.
