Apple iTunes is the largest music retailer in America |
The digital music revolution is definitely here, all you need to do is look around and it seems that everyone is using an iPod or other PMP device. Digital tracks have quickly outpaced traditional CD sales and online digital music sales have skyrocketed.
Back in February we reported that Apple’s iTunes store was the second largest music retailer in the United States. Apple announced this week that it was now the top music retailer in America, surpassing Wal-Mart.
Apple says that its iTunes service has over 50 million customers and has sold over 4 billion songs along with having the largest music catalog of over 6 million songs. Apple’s claim to the top spot comes from data from the NPD Group based on the amount of music sold in January and February of 2008.

Wow! Yes people we have come down to digital replacing a little round disc, this is great. What’s not to appealing, is this, Apple! Is this many people, actually spending this much money, on single file format you can only put on Apple’s “iPod”? C’mon people… Take the time to download, convert, name tag’s, do what you gotta do not to put money in these people’s pocket’s. Apple is a joke, with it’s little iPod, that come’s in a million color’s and size’s and that the consumer keep’s going back and buying more of. All of this because they came out with on the you can hardly see, or it come’s in three shade’s of pink, give me a break. LOL!!!
