The right column is number of paid developers in the bucket.

The biggest group is 3, those who made $100 to $999.

Is this analysis valid? Or is this there a missing factor, like old apps not showing up in the store?

One that stands out is that people are willing to pay for Arcade/Action and Personalization apps beyond what the download distribution would suggest.

I'm interested in knowing what the Pareto distribution is, are there apps that are skewing categories? (eg: a very popular personalization app?).

Also, knowing that paid apps are less than 1% (0.7%?) of all downloads is interesting.
