The New Mac App Market

Marco Arment:

So I expect a lot of iOS developers to start making Mac apps, especially individuals and very small teams.

I think he’s right. The number of Mac apps is about to really start to grow. I think Marco nails this bit too:

But a huge new market is about to open next door. And yes, it’ll probably be dominated by Angry Birds and other inexpensive, often trivial apps. When this happens, a lot of traditional Mac developers are going to look down on it. But those with a bit of free time to develop their own inexpensive, often trivial apps might have a different viewpoint entirely when they see their sales numbers.
