Sorry to go off topic, but damn insaincain02! I've been a regular Digg member for over 4 times as long as you have, and I've only dugg 3,600 stories (I try to digg frequently). In 8 months, you somehow managed almost 55,000 diggs, and over half your submissions make it to the front page. How do you do it?

I'm not talking about an itemized listing of sales for each item, just what percentage of app downloads are free, what percentage are paid, and how much revenue is being spent in App Store, as I already stated. Simple figures, reasonable request.

"Speaking in an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Apple CEO Steve Jobs revealed that the App Store saw more than 60 million downloads in its first month, with an average of $1 million in sales per day, for a monthly total of around $30 million."There's now over 300 million downloads, so we could estimate that the total revenues would be around $150 million, if the ratio didn't change since.

Actually you can already do that. Click on "Power Search" in the iTunes store main page, choose the "Application" category and click on "Search for free applications".And if you want to look for "cheap but not free" apps, you can always sort the results by price.
