One huge milestone for music. Help iTunes reach 10 billion song downloads, and you could win a $10,000 iTunes Gift card.
iTunes changed the way you buy music, making songs and albums available for download, day or night. Seven years later, we’re about to celebrate our biggest milestone for music, yet – 10 billion songs downloaded. Buy a song, and if it’s the 10 billionth download, you could win a $10,000 iTunes Gift card. It’s our way of saying thanks.
