What? Your math seems wrong.
The registration fee is $99, Apple has paid out $4 billion as of February this year, and there are ~.25 million registered iOS developers in US, let's be generous and say there are 1M registered developers worldwide. It still averages out $4K pay out per registered developer.
How can you use the $12 per iOS device app revenue to extrapolate average developers' income is totally beyond me.
- orbitingpluto 15y agoOh wow my math is wrong. Also 25 billion downloads across 315 million devices is frightening. Each device has downloaded almost 80 apps? http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2012/03/app-store-25-billion/ http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2012/03/app-store-25-billion/ (And thanks for correcting me on the reg fee. I thought it was $200 for some reason.)
