Just because mobile is more prevalent does not make it more valuable, in fact, quite the opposite: the fact that it reaches more classes dilutes the spending power of the average user. What we have ended up with is a segment with extreme competition AND low app prices (the average PC app sells for at least 10x more than a mobile app).
But this is only the tip of the iceberg. Although we have tried to app-ify everything, I still prefer doing 99 percent of tasks on a device with a real keyboard and enough horsepower to prevent lag (in spite of rapid improvements, I still find the lag on my mobile device (1 year old now - HTC One M8) to be frustrating).
