iPhone app sales growing at twice the rate of iTunes music
AppleInsider — ... for the iPhone and iPod touch in two months is more than just a good start among software -- it's a good start for a new iTunes feature in general, according to a new report .

AppleInsider — ... been sold. By August, the company had shipped 50 million, and last month it noted a total of 100 million. Less than a month later, the 200 million milestone indicates that new growth is increasing rapidly along with new sales.

Even without any additional growth in mobile software sales, Apple is on track to sell a billion apps by next year. For comparison , the iTunes Music Store opened a year and a half after the iPod first went on sale, ...
