iTunes Sales Not 'Collapsing' After All

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the looking-at-the-bigger-picture dept.

john82 writes "Earlier this month we had a report from Forrester, based on a random sampling of 2,000 credit card accounts, that purported to show that iTunes sales were crashing. Now comes another survey from Reston, VA-based ComScore which indicates the exact opposite. ComScore's report which is based on actual iTunes sales shows a 84% increase during the first nine months of this year compared to the same period last year. Meanwhile the author of the Forrester report, Josh Bernoff, noted in his blog yesterday that they shouldn't be pummeled just because everyone took what he wrote and ran with it."

    Of the 1 billion songs Apple sold, Apple actually profitted 10-20 million from it over 3 years. Whether it is collapsing or up from the year before, what the fuck difference does it make to the bottom-line of a multi-billion dollar corporation? Quit posting this stupid ass shit. When iPod sales collapse, post it!!! Otherwise, try finding some good articles! Man, rant over and fire Zonk!!!
