Is this because of the fight with Apple, or a games rights issue?

So many reasons, happiness index, healthcare costs and general health
level, schooling if you've got or are planning on kids. I'm about to
age out of that myself, and having kids already makes it much more
difficult.

It's only ever been a 'grass may be greener' idea at the back of my mind
though. From what little curiosity I've had for it, just the same as
for moving to the USA legally from outside it, seems you need to have a
career in high demand, be rich, or marry into it, and possibly speak the
language. The English speaking ones seem to be in pretty dire straits
too. Maybe away from US/EU there's New Zealand but that's really way up
there on the rich/high demand requirements.

For Android they offer an apk file to download. I don't really want to
sideload it without knowing if those freebies are any good.
