    I always wished that stories like this would give Market Share as well as Market Size.

    Loosing 50% market share sounds bad until you consider that Market size went from 10 to 1000. That means sales went from 10 to 500.
    These are all made up numbers, to illustrate market share alone doesn’t give you the whole picture.

    There's an old business joke, "We lose money on every sale, but we make it up on volume." This is no longer a joke.​
