A heck of a lot of cargo is carried in the belly holds of passenger aircraft. The 777-300ER is especially a workhorse at this. The A380 can carry less cargo because more space is taken up with passenger bags because there are more passengers. An expectation is A380s used a lot more for intra-Asia travel. Those urban conglomerations in China are getting bigger and more plentiful, with similar things happening in other Asian countries to a lesser extent.
