I just want an app where I can buy all the Blizzard related comics/manga. It is pretty annoying that they are sponsoring Cryotozoic yet Xcomics has the Worgen comics and most of the new World of Warcraft Comics as well.

Blizzard if you are reading this, please make sure that ALL and I mean ALL your digital readadable content is in one place for ease of purchase and enjoyment.

kthx

Wow ...I see the topic has gone the wrong way....I could download the free version of the free manga.... Still I hardly read them mangas.... As for the app on other phones it does need to be made available....like most have said not all the people used the same phone brand or carriers.
Is a good thing what Blizzard is doing but it needs to be improved yet on the availability issued.

I don't care about iPhone vs Andriod vs Blackberry. What I get annoyed about is a large entity like Blizzard putting an app out for just one of them. :(

Wow people, really. Iphone sucks blah blah, droid is better blah blah. Why do people have such allegiances to corporate entities that don't care about you in the least? It's all about money. I have an iphone and its great. My friend has a blackberry and it's great. Another friend has a droid phone, and it's great. People can like whatever phone they please. If we all had the same crap, then nothing would be special. All of you fanboys need to pull your heads out of each others butts and give your heads a shake. Grow up.

@Taalku: i have a 7-11 pay per use phone. and its better than Iphones and droids and blackberries because i said it is. I loved it when the first Ipad came out and their was lines a mile long with people that didnt even know what they were buying. they were interviewing the people in line on the news, asking people why are you buying an I-pad. and most people had the stupidest answers like "for all the features", "because it has a big screen", "I just like the things im gonna be able to do with it" no one had a clue what it was they just wanted it because it was the new apple product.

Just out of curiosity, Blizz...

Are you planning to make Vol. 1 free for android users, assuming you ever get around to hiring a Java Dev worth a crap?

Blizzard....read: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/mobile-phones/8547645/Apple-Android-and-BlackBerry-in-US-smartphone-stalemate.html Now what this tells me from even a business stand point is that I should be developing Android Apps first and foremost.....take notes Cryptozoic, seeing how it is Blizzard that put you guys on the map.....ANDROID 1st.....APPLE LATER....

In response to my comment, Blizzard does need to get the rights to produce their works on various operating systems. Who is to say that they aren't currently negotiating with Android. Be patient. And try to comment something useful. If all you have to say is garbage, try Barrens chat on for size.

@Shippoh: Rather than reply to 2 seperate but joined comments, I'm just going to put it all here.

1. App stands for Application, not Apple. Any piece of non-OS software, for any platform or OS, can be described as an app. MS Office is an app. WoW, itself, is an app, regardless of whether you're running Windows or OSX.

2. No one is suggesting that Blizz/Cryptozoic not make an app for iOS (the OS behind iPhone/iPod/iPad devices); just that market figures suggest that they make android the priority. no matter how much the Mac and iOS devices are increasing in use, the sales numbers show that androids are out-selling iPhones, and the expectation is that tablets will go the same way.

3. While I don't agree with Wulfstar that all Apple products are crap (most modern Macs are Intel-based, and OSX is really just a custom Linux kernel, after all), they have had a reputation for being specialized in A/V, and the software selection has always been problematic. Apple hasn't improved this with the stranglehold they've put on app publishing, either.

4. I'm curious to know what negotiations you think Blizzard would be going through with Android. While I could see them having to deal with Apple and their iTunes store, android - or more correctly Google - doesn't have the kinds of restrictions that Apple does. This is a big reason androids are out-selling the iPhones. I can write an android app, put it on a website, sell it for whatever I want (though I doubt anyone would pay $10000 for my "hello, World!" app :P), and no one can say a word about it. Why? Because I am not restricted to Google's app rules, and I'm not even putting it on the android market. I'm not required to share my profits with Google, nor the carrier. So I can't imagine what kinds of negotiations that Blizzard might be involved in.

Blizzard should really be supporting the Windows side of things, considering the game is available for PC. However, as a Mac user I love that Blizzards releases everything for Mac. Its the main reason I stick with WoW over other RPGs. After all, Mac use is steadily increasing. And the title of the article is that it is an APP - for Apple products. Just buy an iProduct, they're worth the money, and much better than Windows.

@Shippoh: As a certified computer tech i just love it when i see clueless idoits ramble on about thier over priced apple/mac equipment...it is all over priced garbage...compare the iphone to the evo...droid phones are more sound, the hardware is better , the software is great, they colab with google. Mac use is a style thing , its all about a fad...not functionallity. So LMFAO @ anybody who buys their over priced crap...lol. In this case the most expensive product is not always the best.

@Wülfstår: If you were a truly good computer tech, you would know that different computers are used for different things. Likewise, different phone OS are used for and by different people.

I have an android phone and a PC. This does not mean I don't like Apple products. It means that I have no need for a very well-built media editing machine.

I could go on and on about the differences between the product, but I've done that enough. If what I've said so far doesn't stop you from being a mindless fanboy, nothing will.

@Wülfstår: I think you go a bit far with saying that all Apple products are overpriced garbage, as you put it. There are several Macs in a comparable price-point to equivalent PCs, and they have similar or better hardware under the hood. Heck, we have a Mac Mini running XP at work (an actual XP install, not WINE'd), that we use for video conferencing.

Stop blathering nonsense that was spoon-fed to you in Redmond; you're making the rest of us computer techs look bad.
