Microsoft’s Windows Phone Marketplace is now home to more than 25,000 applications, according to the app tracking website WindowsPhoneAppList. That’s a rapid jump from the 18,000 applications that were available in May, but it’s still a far cry from the competing app stores offered by Apple and Google.
The Android Marketplace has more than 200,000 applications, and Apple said in May that its iTunes App Store boasts a half-a-mil.
The top-5 paid apps in the Windows Phone Marketplace are all games. Angry Birds is the most popular download, followed by Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episode 1, Plants vs. Zombies, Doodle Jump, and Pac Man Championship Edition DX.
