Well, IMHO it is a fair argument for Google. They allow third party app stores. F-Droid is a brilliant example.
For Apple, however, things aren't as nice and shiny. They force you to distribute and get apps through their store. They don't let you distribute your apps easily otherwise. You don't have a choice of sharing a piece of your app price with Apple or selling it through your website as a package, or through any other app store.
