Only a little. While prices will get driven down, the total amount of money getting spent on Mac apps will increase hugely. I've been using macs since the days of the Plus, but when was the last time I actually paid money for a boxed piece of software apart from MS Office? Probably about a decade ago. And I'm not talking about piracy -- I just haven't felt a sufficient desire for any third-party piece of software that would entice me to go down to one of the very few places where such things are available by retail (even the Apple Store has a rather embarrassing small corner of mac software). It's times like this I wish I had some time to actually write some Mac apps.
