• Zynga buys OMGPOP for $183M. In bidding war vs Disney and EA.

• Draw Something doing $250,000/day AFTER Apple’s commission. http://allthingsd.com/20120321/looks-like-zynga-just-bought-omgpop-for-200-…
  That must be just upgrades and virtual currency revenue, because ads are outside of Apple’s control. That’d be $350,000/day revenue total for upgrades and virtual currency. If CRO telling truth on March 8, then 1/3 is virtual currency ($116,000/day) and 2/3 is paid upgrades ($234,000/day). That means 234,000 pro users per day (1-2M installs/day = 12%-25% pro upgrade conversion rate). The least virtual currency package is $1.99 and next is $4.99, but if we estimate $5 per user, that is 1% of new installs and 23,200 virtual goods purchases per day (of $5 each, thus more likely 2-3 $1.99 purchases by buyers).
