iTunes Sells 500 Millionth Song
TJPile writes "Apple's iTunes Music Store can now say half a billion served. One look at Apple's front page says it all. Sunday, at 2:44PM EST, Amy Greer of Lafayette, Indiana bought Faith Hill's Mississippi Girl to win."
Hasn't anyone patented 'the display of multiple round numbers in celebration of sales achievement' yet? McDonalds should get on that.

In all likelyhood, Apple would not be able to sell you music that did not have some form of DRM. We should be thankful that at the very least, the Apple DRM is unobtrusive and allows users some flexibility with their music.
"One look at Apple's FRONT page says it all." That's http://www.apple.com/ I can't help it if the editors butcher my submissions. I had links to Apple.com, the iTunes Music Store, and the winning song in my submission, but they were cut.
>All the same, though, knowing that I only have 5 format/reinstalls before my music becomes untouchable isn't good enough.
