During the past year I’ve worked with 2 large Fortune 500 companies (they are everywhere globally and everyone knows them) whose main business is in consumer products and services.

Amount of paying mobile users for both companies is clearly dominated by the iOS. About 1:5-1:10 ratio.

is that globally or in the markets like US, i assume it a lot closer in markets that have more hi end devices and disposable income.

but it is sure that apple customers are more used to pay for applications. that's something that i noticed like 8 years when i switched from windows to osx/macbook. while on windows you could find free basic utility software like rippers converters and so on, on macbook they usually where paid applications.
