Android Market clears the 50,000 app mark, says AndroLib

Google has never been too inclined to give the world the straight dope on total app counts in the Android Market, but other companies — notably AndroLib — have been happy to try to pick up the slack. The app tracking site now reports a grand total of 50,031 approved binaries as of this writing, marking a pretty magical milestone in light of the Market’s humble beginnings as a free-only cache of a handful of apps for the G1. To be fair, AndroLib is aggregating across all of the Market’s regional sites — you won’t find 50,000 apps in any one Market alone — but it’s undoubtedly a solid sign for the platform. Now we just need a little Froyo to go with that, right?
