^^ seriously bro?

This is a nice development though.. Play store just needs now to spice up its offerings by getting more popular titles by Indian and Pakistani writers like Chetan Bhagat, Karan Bajaj, Mohsin Hamid, Hosseini and others. This way purple like us in America can also get access.
Good going Google!
