Just over two short years since Apple launched the iTunes Store they have overcome yet another milestone. With a catalog of 5 million songs and having just sold over 3 billion songs Apple is now the 3rd largest music retailer in the US, ahead of Amazon and Target.
“We’d like to thank all of our customers who have contributed to this incredible milestone,” said Eddy Cue, Apple’s vice president of iTunes.
Apple has definitely revolutionized the way people purchase and listen to their music, this milestone just marks another level of achievement. Apple has already hit 100 million iPods sold, should get interesting when that number rounds the 1 billion mark, which I suspect will happen, some day.
