The App Store counter, who counts every download of an app, has now reached the 10 billion mark (and that during 2.5 years). The guy who has downloaded it has got a 10,000 US Dollar iTunes card as surprise.
Who wouldn't celebrate with Apple for this huge success? Right, Microsoft.
Microsoft want to prevent Apple to get exclusive rights for the name "App Store" as a brand. They say that the name "App Store" is too general and can't belong to one company (Apple), and the name would already be in everyone's common parlance. They wrote 500 pages as protest.

It is kind of ridiculous.
I mean, everyone calls an MP3 player an "iPod", regardless of the make/model.
really great success
and i agree with microsoft in their protest.
wow that's a lot of apps!
Mind-blowing.
That's a lot of pages.
Oo nice :D 10 billion downloads :D
25k at the iTunes gift card store, Apple loves to give themselves presents.
Incredible number indeed can't even picture that size
That is not a small number.
Nice going Apple.
Although I'm still happy with my old mp3 player. Gets the job done just fine.

Ubuntu had an "App Store" for a while too.

sry. i m not an apple fan at all
wow microsoft are suffering from serious butthurt
JAYSIS thats crazy.

I want to know how you can spend 500 pages saying "No, we don't think that you should have that name." That's longer than some novels.
lol Microsoft has turned into the ultimate corporate trolls
wow thats a lot
