Why are mobile application sales dropping?

Michael Mace in his blog writes about the reasons that lead to stagnation of mobile applications market – in particular why S60 application sales are not growing, while as sales of S60 based smartphones is booming. Very interesting article and very interesting discussion that followed the comments from Rafe Blandford from AllAboutSymbian and Sander van der Wal from mBrainSoftware.

Excellent reading, that can be complemented by “Let them be – or completely change expectations?” by Steve Litchfield and “The Long Tail of S60 Applications” by Tommi Vilkamo.
