True. But the reality is far more complicated than that. In order to compare the two objectively (this is from the perspective of a developer, but many of the same factors also apply for end users), you also have to take into account things like the number of users that buy apps, app store fragmentation, how your software will fare in each store, and a whole host of other technical and market factors that are frequently discussed here. I realize this might not be what you're saying, so I'll slay a misinterpretation for those that might hold it: going only by the sheer number of users on a platform alone does not mean that it is going to be a good idea for you to develop for it.
