This is brilliant Apple marketing! They have filtered the study data enough to exclude the Android apps that are really making the most money while making it look like Android apps are struggling.

Right now the Android apps that are really making money use a different model than that of the traditional Apple model that is apps that are free, but have in app billing or are subsided by AdMoble advertisements.

The apps that are not using this model do have a hard time making money because there are so many good free apps.
