iTunes Music Store sells 275,000 Tracks in 18 Hours

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the now-it-gets-interesting dept.

physicsnerd writes "According to this article on Billboard.com, Apple's iTunes Music store sold 275,000 tracks in its first 18 hours of operation. The Register.com estimates that this netted Apple just under $100,000! Not too bad for a 99 cents store." Impressive considering the connection problems people were having. Remains to be seen what usage will be after the hype settles down.

    I really need to spell check my posts. Either that or learn to spell. Recommended/recomend. In the same paragraph, no less. That's almost as bad as Lewis (or was it Clark?).
