iTunes just sold it's billionth song
that's a lot of songs.

And yes, it was "Speed of Sound" purchased as part of the Coldplay Album X&Y

http://www.apple.com/itunes/1billion/

and who said that people will only steal music online and will never pay for it?

1. The guy who bought the billionth song was from around here
I heard about it on Rachel Maddow this morning. He's from West Bloomfield, MI.

3. not a bad gift package either
20 inch iMac, 10 60 gig ipods and a $10,000 iTunes gift card.

That's 500 million songs in 12 months...

4. If there was a small fee on these downloads
it could fund a lot of programs for the needy.
