Some more numbers for you all: http://mashable.com/2009/05/14/apple-iphone-apps-profit/
Short version: not that much. Long version: Anywhere between $20 and $45 million; when you count in LSVP’s approximation that the ratio of free to paid apps, is somewhere between 1:15 and 1:40, and O’Reilly’s estimate that the mean price for paid apps is $2.65. Multiply (Multiply reviews) these numbers and you get revenue of $70-$160 million; Apple’s 30%, which is how much they get from each sold application puts their chunk of the cake at $20-45 million. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
