Source on this please. I'm skeptical that they sell enough iPads to equal half of all clothing sold on the planet, or they have a larger market or 20% of movie

Source on this please. I'm skeptical that they sell enough iPads to equal half of all clothing sold on the planet, or they have a larger market or 20% of movies or gaming worldwide.
- zepto 5y agoPlease don’t ask for sources on things you can easily Google. It looks like you are trying to discredit the poster or accuse them of dishonesty without adding new information to the thread. If they are wrong, you can trivially demonstrate that with a link of your own.
- dragonwriter 5y agoPlease don’t ask people to do a web search for support for your claims.
- zepto 5y agoFor easily verifiable claims, it’s absurd and frankly dishonest to expect people to provide links. If you want to accuse them of lying or being mistaken, you can provide a link. If their claim is implausible, you can comment on why. Just asking for a link without adding one of these doesn’t add anything to the conversation except a demand they do work.
- catblast01 5y agoThis is really low effort to look up from reputable sources if you don’t believe it. Electronics have far higher sales prices than clothing, I can’t even begin to fathom why that is a relevant benchmark.
- spullara 5y agoMaybe you don't know what the size of the clothing market is because it isn't $40-60B. If you just look at ecommerce for clothing: The global fashion ecommerce industry was expected to decline from $531.25 billion in 2019 to $485.62 billion in 2020. The negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -8.59% is largely due to the coronavirus pandemic. However, the market is set to recover and hit $672.71 billion by 2023 The general clothing market is even bigger, obviously: In 2019, global retail sales of apparel and footwear reached 1.9 trillion U.S. dollars, and were expected to rise to above three trillion U.S. dollars by 2030.
