Apple plans to release the next major update to its operating system, Mac OS X Lion, through its desktop application store, AppleInsider reports citing people familiar with the matter.
The Mac App Store, launched in January 2011, is Apple’s attempt to apply the app store concept it had popularized through the iOS ecosystem to desktop applications.
If Apple indeed starts offering the Mac OS X Lion through the Mac App store, it’ll make strides in popularizing the store among users. The store holds Apple’s software but also third-party apps, with Apple receiving a 30% cut from each purchase.
Apple will also offer Lion in the traditional form of an optical disc for users with slower internet connection, AppleInsider reports. We’ll probably find more about Apple’s distribution plans for Lion at this year’s Worldwide Developers Conference, June 6 – 10 in San Francisco.
