Apple has approved the 500,000th app to the iOS App Store today, another large milestone for the ever growing store.
By comparison, the Android Market has just over 200,000 apps, Nokia's now defunct Ovi Store had 50,000 and BlackBerry World and Windows Phone 7 Marketplace both have under 25,000.
It is important to note that active apps are just about 400,000 due to replacements and removals, however.
