AppWorld near to Robbery?

I just wanted to create an AppWorld vendor account for distribution of a private app I developed. But I just realized the pricing is awful: 200$ for 10 submissions including refuced apps, that's even worse then the announcements for Windows Phone apps.

I always wondered why there are so few apps in the store compared to Android Marketplace for example. I always thought that's because of many providers do not distribute AppWorld but know I think RIM does not get the small developers because of their pricing policy.

I myself will go to other stores now with my app.
