If that were the case then it would affect all apps rather than a small handful of apps that updated yesterday.

Christmas day is the big one for the App Store. I doubt July 4 comes very close to that.

July 4 is actually bigger than Christmas for our apps. We have an outdoorsy app.

Not necessarily. All the apps are cached by Akamai so it could be that newly created app bundles get retrieved directly from the source.

Also July 4 is a pretty big holiday as far as usage patterns go.
