Apple sells Billionth song!

At approximately 12:37 PM Eastern on February 23rd, 2006, Apple sold its one billionth song on iTunes, marking the end of their Billion Song Giveaway campaign. As they marked their way to one billion, the music fans who downloaded every 100,000th song won a prize package featuring a black 4GB iPod nano and a $100 iTunes Music Card.

But the lucky music fan who downloaded the billionth song from the iTunes Music Store won:

* New 20-inch iMac
* 10 60GB iPods
* $10,000 iTunes Music Card

The winner’s name has not yet been announced by Apple.

    I wonder what hes going to do with the $10,000 iTunes Music Card – Personally I would sell it on ebay or something as there is no way I would ever be able to purchase $10,000 worth of songs.
