I Am T-Pain enjoys 10,000 downloads per day
Apple continued its dominance in the app market by announcing that its catalog now tops 100,000 titles. I Am T Pain downloaded 10,000 times per day.
Apple today announced that the App Store now offers more than 100,000 apps for the iPhone and iPod touch, making it the largest application store in the world.
Apple has a pretty substantial head start in the market with 10 times the apps of its nearest competitor, the Android Market, which has 10,000 apps. Rounding out third place is Blackberry App World with 3,000.
The most surprising part of the Apple press release was Jeff Smith's (CEO of app wunderkind Smule) admonition that his I Am T-Pain ($2.99) app gets a whopping 10,000 downloads per day.
Apple also noted that 2 billion apps have been downloaded since the App Store opened on July 10, 2008.
