Android Marketplace booming

The Android platform is fast becoming the biggest in the world, it has now been activated on over 250 million devices worldwide. That’s up 50 million since November 2010.
Meanwhile, the Android Marketplace has managed to fly past its 11 billionth download. Apple’s App Store, which is around three months older, passed its 18 billionth download in December 2011. Most downloaded apps are free. Estimates suggest just 10% of apps downloaded are paid for but this is rising as apps become more sophisticated and useful and people are willing to pay for them.
