It's Incredibly Nice to Shop

All in all, the Mac App Store is a slick experience, and it's incredibly nice to shop for apps from hundreds of different developers without having to give your credit card or PayPal info to each one separately, and without having to unzip archives, open DMGs, mess around with installers, and manually drag app icons to the Applications folder.
