SD Bad

Phones in the past came with SD cards and now manufactures are telling everyone that's it's a bad idea to have SD cards on high end phones because they simply found a better way to make more money for you. The argument is that SD cards are made of poor quality and they usually corrupt files and video's, but I must admit I have yet to see a SD card to do such a thing. And if there is one the margin is very small. I have taken SD cards that were put into the environment by being dropped, stepped on, and handled by all types of services and these cards function exactly as they did when they first were purchased. The trick is to just format the card when your getting errors.
But unless consumer's start standing up and complaining, it looks like the SD card is doomed.

SD Good

SD cards have been in the market for sometime and I must admit there handy devices and you should always include one with the purchase of a phone and here is the reason why.
Manufactures recently started noticing that they can make more money by charging you data space on the cloud. So if you have taken pictures or video's on your smartphone. You phone has special apps that stores them in the cloud so that your phone will never run out of memory, which is good. The bad is that when you run out of memory in the cloud, now your forced to purchase more space and manufacture's love you even more.
Now by installing an SD card you eliminate the extra cost of the cloud monthly and your overall savings will be in significantly less than if you had stuck with your manufacture to purchase more storage.

App vs Software

Why do people call mobile applications "apps" and not say that it's just software. This is a good question and here goes the logic answer and I hope you can get this.

A software refers to a set of programs, procedures, algorithms and it's documentation concerned with the operation of a data processing system. It's data that is stored on your phone or computer. ex. Microsoft, Android, iOS, etc.
You can update your system software which is already located on your device, but you cannot run it.

Whereas, an application or application software used to run and perform various tasks.

That's the difference and that's why it's two different things. One software runs, and the other doesn't.
