Apple still king in mobile app store revenues, but its share is shrinking

The results are out, and who’s the winner of the online app store? Well, obviously it’s still Apple that’s taking the huge lead in front, but their growth is indeed slowing down, as the App Store begins to reach a saturation point on smartphones, while Nokia’s Ovi Store and Google’s Android Market blossomed during 2010 by multiples of 7.2 and 8.6 times their 2009 size, the biggest growing kid of all. Apple’s share at the top has shrunken as a consequence, a trend that looks likely to continue when Windows Phone 7′s Marketplace and the Ovi Store are melded into one through this year and beyond.
