I'm giving serious thought to the Amazon FireTV. I don't own any android devices yet, but I did have one question.. why does the XBMC app have to be side loaded? I thought the Android stores permitted anything in them?

Because Team XBMC has not and is probably never going to submit XBMC to the Amazon app store.

Well, we probably would if we thought it would be approved, but the DTS/AC3 purge on Google Play, OUYA, and other app stores seem to suggest otherwise.

Thank you for the response. I'm not familiar with the purge, but I'm sure you guys would submit it if you thought it would be approved. Is there harm in trying?
