Apple announced a “Top Grossing” category in addition to existing “Top Paid” and “Top Free” categories on the store. That change responds to developer complaints that expensive apps get buried in the “Top Paid” category because that ranking is based on the number of downloads, rather than total revenue generated from distribution of a piece of software.
