business. Apple was followed in the EST/iVOD rankings by Microsoft, which saw its market share jump from 11.6 percent in 2009 to 17.9 percent in 2010, and Sony, which went from 5.7 percent share in 2009 to 7.2 percent share in 2010. Overall, the EST/iVOD market underwent significant expansion in 2010, with revenue rising by more than 60 percent.
