Samsung have added their own framework to their own Galaxy devices, which no doubt is utilized delivery of the proprietary QuickFlix app(s). If Samsungs framework wasn’t used, QuickFlix for Android wouldn’t be hard to be sideload onto any Android device, and Samsung wouldn’t want that now would they?
