Android market surpasses the 50K milestone!April 26th, 2010 - 09:47 pm by Wajiha H.
Android has just been around for a little while and the world really has fallen in love with it. The android market is growing by leaps and bounds much to everyone’s surprise and is now about to take over the world. Also the Google OS application distribution service now offers more than 50 000 titles to Android users around the world; more than half of which are free! Now it is being heard that the Android market got nearly 9000 new apps in March alone!
 We hear that more such things will be offered sometime this month. Currently the total app count stands at 50 395, which is a big deal for an OS that has just been around for a very short while. Now the Android market can definitely not compete with the Apple App Store (200 000 or so apps) but the rate at which Android has been growing, things might become very close between the two. It could be just around the corner. The total numbers are increasing but the free apps in the Android market are still there and they do comprise a large percentage. Nearly 60 percent of apps in the Android market are completely free, compared to just around 25 percent in the app distribution services of the competing platforms. That really does seem like a big thing! Source Related ArticlesRelated articles to Android market surpasses the 50K milestone!.
