[casual_games] Tapjoy Android porting program

[Lennard Feddersen]

That would be great.  From the website it looks like porting costs are 
either helped with or covered but I've read nothing but bad things about 
the Android market place.  How does the developer ultimately make money 
in the Android marketplace if piracy is rampant and ad. revenue is not 
even a drop in the bucket?
