Median value would have made sense here, not mean value.

- Ihmahr 13y agoAgree. This article is just ridiculous. FunFact: half of the revenue from the app stores go to the top 25 developers. http://www.canalys.com/newsroom/top-25-us-developers-account-half-app-revenue http://www.canalys.com/newsroom/top-25-us-developers-account...
- dylangs1030 13y agoA similar ratio to most things in economics.
- archgoon 13y agoHonestly, not even that. For android, the median is probably zero. If you were to plot apps and their revenues along a line, I would expect them to be fairly clustered around different points. You'd probably find highly polished, quality apps, in one cluster, and stuff that was thrown out in a single weekend in another. There will almost certainly also be clustering based on the category of the app. How much you'd actually expect to make would depend on which cluster you were targeting. Median and mode are both highly misleading numbers when you don't know what the shape of your distribution looks like.
