If you think about it SATA hardrive data speeds are about 150 MBps, and if you can get a 100MBps line to your house, you're able to access files on the internet almost about as fast as you are locally. To me that's kinda mind boggling. Your gonan run outta stuff to download real fast.
Actaully i think that is why you can enter for free by clicking the tell a friend in itunes and sending the email to itunes500@apple.com.
"How To Enter. You will automatically be entered into the Promotion by: 1) downloading a song from iTunes (any free downloads will be deemed an ineligible entry); or 2) a free alternative means of sending an e-mail to Apple at itunes500@apple.com via the iTunes "Tell a Friend" feature (a song download or Tell a Friend e-mail will be deemed an "Entry(ies)"). The "Tell a Friend" feature can be easily accessed at iTunes by selecting a song, and clicking the "Tell a Friend" link that is displayed for that song. One Entry will be automatically submitted for each song downloaded or Tell a Friend e-mail sent. The Promotion begins following the downloading of the 480,000,000th iTunes song, and ends with the downloading of the 500 millionth Entry ("End Date"). Only Entries submitted in this time period will be accepted."
You can blame the World Intellectual Property Organization for this, it's a commitee of the UN, in which its members are not supposed to be government related, however it's chuck full of the MPAA and RIAA, they are really pushing these DMCA type laws apun all of the industrialized countries.
I think that the lost credit data is a big problem. but a bigger problem is the fact that Mastercard has known about this theft since May. Companies are just not open enough with practices and information.
