He's clearly not delivering enough value then, or he's not focusing on a large enough target audience. He's probably also not charging enough. Every single app that I've built has easily grossed >$30-50k each in less than 6 months after launch without having to do significant marketing. And we're talking apps built in <30 days.
The app store has a massive audience; you need to focus on large enough target groups. How many people use RSS apps these days?
Now that I think about it.. I should probably write an ebook on building profitable apps from a developer point of view.
