I'm not saying it is impossible to write and sell good software and keep improving it. I'm saying that a lot of people have tried it and do not have the neccessary advice and reach to make the software successful.
Look at all the Review my startup posts. I have only ever seen a handful actually become successful. Most just seem to fade off.
