Paying for Apple iTunes with PayPal

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the and-a-third-party-of-course dept.

MrIcee writes "While cruising eBay today I noted that some clever individual has apparently stepped up to fill the void left by the fact that Apple's iTunes service does not accept PayPal. While insisting that buyers follow Apple's terms of service, is buying and reselling the gift certificate legal or not? If legal, it's an interesting and simple idea that could be applied to many areas." It is pretty neat, even if the $16 markup is a little ludicrous. It's like the old adage: a fool and his PayPal account are soon parted.

    For what you can get for free? I have solar power, I get water from the nearby creek (no fluoride!), and I acquire my music for free, so to speak. I have an ultra-top secret satellite connection to the internet. The only problem is when I lose power when the clouds cast over the solar panels.

      You're a dork. If you have a creek nearby, use that for electricity when it's overcast.

      Duh.
