Ouya, not just for games?

Hi guys, I'm a early stages learning developer and I was looking at developing some multimedia applications, things like storybooks, online video players, game reviews, etc.

The Ouya is focused on games, but would multimedia apps be considered for the store?
Or am I just looking at sideloading only?

    OUYA store has apps as well!
    The ones I can come up with right now are twitch and plex, but Im pretty sure theres a few more.

    OUYA has an own APP category in the store as well, but its buried pretty deep.

    I made the OUYA exclusive games Cube and Creature and Hellworm!

    I've seen some apps too. something for picture and some chat program, i'm sure there are more too.
    but i noticed those two.

    Apps that would be useful. FTP program / Web Browsers / Game Organizer / Ebook reader /

    Thanks for that guys, good to know.

    I only got my Ouya yesterday, so I am still working my way round it. My assumption was based on everything so far I have found seems to say games rather than apps or software, so I wasn't sure if the reins were tighter for indie apps or the store structure wasn't geared for them.

    Actually, I'm experimenting with just about everything EXCEPT games at www.ouyarules.com.
