Yea, but how is that a monopoly? There is even a fullon android AppStore from Amazon

A monopoly is about market share and access to a market, "there is also ..." doesn't cut it in that discussion.

The real issue here is that Apple is still allowed to do it.

Apple's app store may be a problem, but saying "someone else is also doing something bad" doesn't mean what Google is doing isn't bad & illegal.
