Our new podcast: Meet...
We know. Podcasts are so last year - but this one you won't want to miss. Whether it’s a rumor that won’t die, a new product announcement, or just a really good Macintosh or iPhone app find that we have to let you know about, we’ll make sure it’s covered on Appletellcast.
iPhone App Reviews
iPhone Apps. They were great when the App Store was first announced and we could all pick and chose what we wanted, but the number is now overwhelming. Here at Appletell, we'll detail the great iPhone apps we find, and steer you clear from those that aren't worth it even if they're free.
iPhone Game Reviews
As Apple turns the iPhone into one of the most popular gaming devices, the staff of Appletell--gamers and Apple fans alike--are here to help you get the most entertainment value out of your app store purchases.
After a few recent surveys, one thing is for sure. Apple’s place in the music history books are set in stone. An iPodNN report brought a recent Ipsos survey to light that showed that when it comes to music downloading, iTunes is preferred by half of the market, giving it a commanding lead over the second place Napster, which has a relatively meager 10% share. iTunes also showed a huge jump in overall use. Although almost all large downloading services have increased in name recognition and use, iTunes is the only one that jumps out as a huge increase.
And to just pour salt in the competition’s wounds, Apple also has the mp3 player market wrapped up. As shown in a Electronista report, iPods are used by most teenagers, and iTunes likewise. Of the teens surveyed, 87% said that they owned an mp3 player of any sort, and a staggering 86% percent reported that mp3 player to be an iPod of some sort.
In comparison to the closest competition, the Microsoft Zune, in second place to the iPod, has an all but generous share of 3% among the teen community, and the second place music store comes in as Real Networks’ Rhapsody, with a 2% share among teens. With the iPod and iTunes’ seemingly unstoppable attack on the music industry, is there any way to go other then up? Only time will truly tell.
