Imagine a world with appstore as the main way of distributing software for any kind of devices.
I think such a world would be much better for most end users. And a lot of people have already voted with their wallet that this is so.
If there were many App Stores, then market forces would come into play. Someone would figure out how to get developers paid without mistreating them. Then really smart devs would start flocking to the other App Store, forcing Apple to reform or lose mindshare.
