ICYMI: October 2, 2020

First things first: Clayton Kershaw, LA Dodgers, last night. Awesome. I may return to watching BLM sports. LOL. Three-game series for the wild card baseball games: best decision. Ever. 

  • BLM: wow. Those folks that said the Miami Heat could take on the LA Lakers. LOL. Not even in the same league!

AAPL: to report 4Q20 earnings October 29, 2020.

App Store: Apple App store reportedly earned twice as much as the Google Play Store in 3Q20. Link here.

$29.3 billion was spent overall on Apple's App Store and Google's Play Store, with over 35.6 billion app installs, in the third quarter of 2020 

App stores have seen significant year-on-year growth, with customers spending 32 percent more than at the same time in 2019, with 23.3 percent more installs. Large growth compared to 2019.

Being driven by remote learning, working from home.

Comment: I've bought annual subscriptions to piano teaching app ($129/year or something like that, maybe just $79/year -- I forget -- for Sophia; at her age beats hiring a private piano teacher); also bought Duolingo for $89/year, I believe -- incredible. Sophia loves it. In addition to all that, she must have two dozen school-approved / school-required apps on her iPad.

By the way, what else does this mean? Folks are going to have to upgrade to new iPads for additional memory, perhaps new operating systems to run the new apps.
