Become popular and then Apple and Google will contact you.

I do not know the answer to all of the questions but I do know that most of these free apps are datamining the customers for info.
So when people sign up they sign a agreement by clicking yes and that gives access to all kinds of goodies.
They acess the persons call history,gps and allows them to sometimes contact you about services in the future.
Its really amazing how many people are willing to play "Angry birds" but do not check the agreement of service.

What's even more amazing is how many people read service agreements who don't play Angry Birds or the like. Ironically, it's that group which those who pen said service agreements wish to exploit because they tend to have more moneys in their pockets than those who don't or can't read.

Some free app developers  make money simply selling their apps to a biggest company.
