I'll bet Apple would happily give you an idea of the size of the market for music apps, but it's a broad category covering everything from training/ education apps to toy pianos to sophisticated synths & sequencers. As one data point, I've spent somewhere around $30 for music apps on iPhone and now iPad: synths, a little metronome app, and a control surface to link to a DAW via WiFi. On the subject of iPad, I'm playing with one now and am convinced one could build an absolutely killer engraving app for it... <dream font="feta" /> :-) --O _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
