GetJar 2011 Mobile Predictions: Consolidation, Democratization And More Revenue For App Developers

GetJar, the largest independent mobile app store, has just released its forecast for mobile trends in 2011. The app store, which has seen over 1 billion downloads to date, is also seeing more than three million downloads per day (which makes the App Store's scale second only to Apple's iTunes). GetJar projects consolidation amongst app stores, writing that in the next five years, only six major app store players will be around with that number dwindling to two or three in ten years. The startup also predicts that closed app systems (i.e. Apple's iTunes) will open up or fail as these stores feel pressure from developers and consumers.
