Bnoopy: The long tail of software. Millions of Markets of Dozens.

Bnoopy: The long tail of software. Millions of Markets of Dozens. The statistics about Amazon, and iTunes, if true, are fascinating.

What this says to me is that the tradition 80/20 “rule” is more a function of consumers having their expectations set by the limits of physical inventory in retail stores than it is about real human nature. Amazon and iTunes are great examples.
