>>It seems that the Mac store now has around 10,000 apps and had 100 million downloads in the 1st year. The download number looks pretty good. I wonder whether there are any stories of developers successfully monetizing those downloads.<< Wow! And at .99 cents per app the consumer is not too picky about gambling on apps they might want. Apple is supposed to be pretty strict about reviewing submitted apps to prevent any trash. So if someone can hit just one percent of this market that would be a million downloads, developer keeps maybe 70%? That's $700,000.. In just one year.
