::Thanks for the helpful criticism and improvements to the article! I've gone through and revised my suggestion based on your input. How's it look?

* Distribution and licensing: Needs sources for remaining unsourced statements. I suggest the first paragraph be stated something like:

<blockquote>The distribution of Metro apps is different from the distribution of traditional Windows apps. Traditional Windows apps can come from a variety of sources, such as [[optical disc]]s manufactured by their publishers and packages downloaded from third-party [[Internet]] sources. Metro apps are published by Microsoft, and installation and maintenance are managed by the Windows Store Service. Windows Store apps are distributed under licensing terms specified by Microsoft, including that purchased apps must be permitted to be used on multiple devices.</blockquote> I suggest replacing the sentence "Metro-style apps may disappear from the user's computer if Microsoft so wishes." with "Microsoft can remove Metro apps from users' computers."

* Multiple copies: The 2nd paragraph needs sources. I suggest the 2nd paragraph be stated something like:

<blockquote>Starting a Metro app while it is already running switches to the running instance.</blockquote>

*In Windows 10 > Look and feel: Still needs sources.

* Lifecycle: I suggest it read something like:

<blockquote>Windows Platform are suspended when closed by the user and closed as needed by a Windows app manager.</blockquote>

* Windows Runtime: The paragraph

<blockquote>Metro-style apps can only be developed using Microsoft's own development tools. Despite claims of interoperability between multiple languages, a practical attempt to implement independent binding to Windows Runtime is doomed to fail.</blockquote>

:::should be rewritten to remove editorialising.

::Do these seem reasonable to you?
