The real app millionaires are all working at Apple. They're the ones who win when people develop apps.

  And beyond that, Pages for iOS has been on the top-selling (sometimes top-grossing) list most of the time when I was looking at it. On the Mac App Store, I wouldn't even be surprised if Apple was the top grossing developer.

    Actually, I'd be surprised if Apple was not the top-grossing developer on the Mac App Store. 8 out of 10 top grossing apps are Apple apps right now. (iPhoto?? Who has not gotten that with their Mac?)

    Yeah, it's kind of like developing for the Nintendo platform. There are, of course, a handful of third party app developers who do very, very, very well. These are the outliers. Mostly, third party devs don't succeed and their apps are simply a selling point for Apple to use for the platform as a whole.
