It appears the App store that Apple launched along with its G3 iphone models may ultimately prove to be the more revolutionary market innovation. The App store has the potential to change the landscape by allowing small developers access to a broad customer base to distribute their software products. It could also shift the focus in the software development industry from an emphasis on apps developed for desktop and laptop PCs over to developing apps more suited for mobile smartphone handsets.
In the short period of time since launch date last month, 60 million apps have been downloaded, represent $30 million worth of sales revenues. Apple retains 30% of the app sales revenues. I am not sure how this percentage compares to the revenue sharing split on downloaded music and video content sold through itunes.
