There's no denying that HTC has a tough time in the marketplace, since the One M9 apparently doesn't sell as good since the company had certainly hoped. There are numerous factors behind this, mainly the not-so-appealing aura that surrounds the newest flagship and also the pretty harsh competition on the likes of Apple and Samsung that are currently wildly successful available.
Well, it would appear that HTC may have a new intend to score some additional cash. @upleaks, the fairly-popular leakster, recently revealed what appears to be a two-step monetization plan allegedly devised by HTC, as outlined by which the Taiwan-based manufacturer might put sponsored adds and app recommendations right into its BlinkFeed.
As you almost certainly know, BlinkFeed is a crucial part of HTC' Sense UI and gives users with content aggregated from various myspace and news-related websites. Soon, however, BlinkFeed could also promote third-party apps and games. Auto-promotion of HTC's own apps and services can be on the table, because it would reportedly also boost sales.
As usual, take this alleged monetization plan that has a grain of salt as it will often have been easily fabricated, but frankly said, it's among the most believable rumors we've discovered of late. What do you think in this speculation?
