Check out what Panic had to say on the subject: http://www.panic.com/blog/2011/01/panic-on-the-mac-app-store...

I'm extremely skeptical about the long-term viability of the app store model, just as I was about trying to build on top of other people's platforms (Twitter, Facebook). But, that doesn't mean it can't work for you for a while, and if a company like Panic thinks that they should be in the app store, then that's probably worth considering.

very helpful link, thanks.

"there’s no question this will become the way new Mac users will find Mac software".

It's true, and you have to be there if you want to be found.
