Apple Closing In On 10 Billion Apps Downloaded
The official iTunes site has a live counter ticking away the downloads as Apple approaches the landmark number. Why do you care? Check the image above.
I want the $10,000 gift card Apple is giving away to the ten-billionth app downloader as much as anyone. Too bad Apple's OS updates have crippled my iPhone 3G to the point that it takes twenty seconds to open my Twitter client, much less actually download anything.
Still, that's a gigantic number of apps served through the App Store. Whatever you think about Apple or the iPhone, it has changed things forever.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
