It would be interesting to know if older applications account for more or less than 50% of the downloads this year. In other words has the potential for a new app gone up or down as the number of apps in the store has grown?
Interesting, I had no idea that links could be submitted with and without https: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5020964
So that's averaging 40 app downloads per account in 2012 alone. Higher than I would expect, but I guess a lot of people download a lot of free apps and then immediately delete them.
Anyone know of any recent (& free) country by country statistics, showing total sales figures on the app store?
