LDT Digital Downloads & Ebooks ranks #1 for ebooks with 4.0% share — the leader position in a fragmented field where many apps are within striking distance, -69.2pp ahead of Digital Downloads PDF Pendora (73.1%). Digital Downloads PDF file BIG sits at #3 with 11.2% share, rounding out the top tier. Together, the top 3 apps absorb 88.2% of all ebooks installs — a highly concentrated landscape with limited room for new entrants.
