Enough Money to Make Angry Birds Happy

"One of the most successful mobile games right now is Angry Birds, which has been downloaded more than 30 million times across different mobile platforms, with 12 million of those being paid downloads on iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches. But on Android, the game is free, and is supported by advertising. Angry Birds has been downloaded more than 5 million times on Android since that version launched in October. "By end of year, we project earnings of over $1 million per month with the ad-supported version of Angry Birds," says Peter Vesterbacka, the "Mighty Eagle" behind the game at Rovio Mobile."

I recall it wasn't such a short time ago that developers complained that they couldn't make any money on Android. Now about a year later, we've got Rovio with their smash hit making $1 million a month in ad venue off the free version. Not too bad!
