US-based Apple Computers crossed the 1 Billion song download mark at its internationally popular online iTunes music store today.

And in videos, Apple referred to iTunes as the world's most popular video download store, saying it has sold more than 15 million videos.

Apple had sold more than 42 million iPods before recent retail price cuts made the MP3 music player even more affordable.

In the final quarter of 2005, ending with the Christmas holiday, iPod sales averaged about 100 per minute.

Nice numbers. Cha ching . . . .

For sure. Lot of money behind the scenes too.

Here's a fascinating article about young music writer wiz Scott Storch who writes a lot of the biggest hiphop tunes. Only 31 and he's banking bling bling bling.

He's in a feature in Ocean Drive magazine this month.

Its really impressive but 1 Billion song download are not all paid ones. Many promos are around in canada to download 10 free songs with Pepsi and Mcdonald.

But i agreee , for the global of itunes, its really impressive what they done in a short space of time.
