    “Monopoly - (economics) a market in which there are many buyers but only one seller”

    Certainly a practical monopoly, if not a literal one. I would bet 99.9% of all app installs on android are through the Play Store.

      I’m comfortable installing apks and even I probably only have 3 or 4 vs the 50 or 60 play store apps on my phone.
