As many people are asking about the Windows Store, in order not to cause misunderstanding and unified information, I would like to give you a uniform source for Microsoft:

At the build Conference in May, we announced the Windows Store as part of Windows 8 to distribute Metro applications. Today, at our store preview conference in San Francisco, we announced application policies and business terms for the Windows Store. You can find detailed descriptions in the MSDN Windows Development Center (English.

 

The following are some key points

• Store Design for better discovery of applications, one-time application development, and global sharing. The store does not have many borders and directly displays the best applications on the surface. Better classification and search, personalized recommendations will help you more easily find suitable applications. At the same time, applications can be directly integrated into Bing search, and the search results will be directly directed to the application release page. At the same time, developers can also promote applications through the Application website and Internet Explorer 10. Windows stores are global and developers can sell their applications to 231 countries.

• Flexible business model: stores support free, trial (limited time or functional limitations), and paid applications. The registration fee of ordinary developers is $49, and the enterprise is $99. In terms of the proportion of applications, developers will get a 70% share of all applications. For more than 25,000 USD of applications, developers will get a 80% share. Supports third-party transactions and AD controls.
• Transparent application verification process: We provide developers with Windows App Certification Kit (part of the SDK) to provide application verification. We also provide feedback to developers who failed to submit applications so that they can solve the problem more quickly and shorten the resubmission cycle.
