lesn: You are attempting to explain the lack of success in the US, when the question was about the success in Japan.

If "interoperability is necessary for the ecosystem to flourish," why has Japan been so successful with no clearinghouse and no indirect?

BTW, I have read some opinions that AT&T restricted the growth of mobile barcodes. If the the information AT&T provided the FTC is accurate, and there is no reason to assume it is not, they have nothing to do with the apps available on handsets. So, without a conspiracy, it seems unlikely that AT&T theory has much merit.
