They tried that with the App Store stuff. That was supposed to be the new world. But it wasn’t compelling, the store sucked and still does today and it was and still is like wading in excrement working on that side of things.

Then it seems like a problem with execution rather than a fundamental problem with the concept.

Especially with Apple as a largely successful counterexample.

Oh yes exactly that. It's a terrible execution of a good idea.
