Aperture 3 released. Won't change the trend though:

Among photographic pros using the Mac,
•In 2007 Lightroom was nearly twice as popular as Aperture
•In 2008 it was nearly three times as popular
•In 2009 it's approaching four times as popular

On the Mac platform only:
2007 2008 2009
Lightroom 26.6% 40.4% 44.4%
Aperture 14.3% 14.6% 12.5%

From those numbers I'd say Adobe are converting Photoshop customers to also use Lightroom.
But then Apple's little 12% share isn't really changing the world either.]]>Feb 9th 2010 10:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/

Lightroom was given away at the start in beta form. Some of those users were Aperture users, but almost ALL of them were Photoshop users. Nothing beats Photoshop. Add those numbers in and it looks a bit different.

That being said, Adobe owns both so they are laughing all the way to the bank.

Aperture is just the next logical step for those who want more than iPhoto.]]>Feb 9th 2010 1:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/Feb 9th 2010 2:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/Feb 9th 2010 5:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/

Hey, good guess man!

Now, can someone explain to me why the site has to go down when Apple puts something new on it? I guess this is the Paris Hilton school of business, where you demand attention by having an unhelpful attitude. Amazon puts up the entire volume of the Apple store, up and down, every 4 hours. Apple shuts the whole store down, making the customer experience worse for a lot of people, just to make sure we all notice they did this?

Or was it just a technical problem? Seems like this happens quite a lot.

If their products don't attract people on their own, without stunts, I kinda resent their success.]]>Feb 9th 2010 1:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/Feb 9th 2010 1:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/Feb 9th 2010 6:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/apple-store-down-globally-let-the-speculation-begin/
