Hows that android version coming..
2 comments

Right now tabs work and click properly. It loads data from our HTTP API and displays it in an ugly way, and trailers do play in a basic way on the Android version.

tl;dr: I'm actively working on it, but I don't want to promise a release date just yet.

If you are not embarrassed with your 1st release, you've waited too long. Release it now! ;-)
I know this was said tongue-in-cheek but as the founder noted below, if you release a half-baked iPhone app you're done. Dead in the water. Nobody cares or will write about your 1.5 version when you finally polish the turd of the 1.0. It's all about the launch, not iteration, on the App Store.
that strategy does not apply to mobile apps. You need a polished product before you release.
Yo guys. It's a joke. I'm friends with the founders.
I wonder how much more ahead of the iPhone it has to pull in marketshare before mobile app developers consider releasing an Android app to be of equal priority.
Remember that Hunch piece about the demographics of Android vs iOS users?

Maybe that's a factor over and above adoption numbers.
