iTunes Europe Races Past 50 Million Downloads
Apple announced earlier this week its iTunes store in Europe has sold over 50 million songs since its opening back in June of last year.
“We’re thrilled to have sold and delivered over 50 million songs in our first year,” said Eddy Cue, Apple’s vice president of Applications in a statement. “We’d like to thank European music fans for making iTunes such a success.”
iTunes Europe has a catalog of more than 1 million songs from major labels and independent labels. The store is available to users in France, Germany and the UK.
In total, the iTunes Music Store has sold over 430 million songs. The Canadian version opened earlier this year, however, no statistics have been released yet.
