Lightoom/Aperture market share

According to Infotrends, via John Nack's blog, Lightroom is now FOUR TIMES more popular among Apple users than Aperture.

This story was dated September '09, and it's really coming as no surprise. What Apple had, in terms of a following, pretty much disappeared through their own, repeated mishandling of the product... starting at the very beginning with an astoundingly crappy RAW processor and an interfaced that looked like Final Cut Pro, not anything from Adobe. When Apple decided that photographers should learn to be film editors I'll never really know...

That, and just the fact that Lightroom is a really great product. If you look at the book lists and workshops that fill up alone, it was pretty much expected news...


Oh, by the way... You seeing this Mike?
