Apple Has Sold 1 Million Songs on iTunes for Windows
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Apple Computer Inc. (Nasdaq:AAPL - news) said on Monday that Windows computer users had downloaded its iTunes digital jukebox software and bought more than 1 million songs at a cost of 99 cents each from its online music store since their launch for Windows last Thursday.
That compares with 1 million songs sold in the first seven days when it introduced the original iTunes for Mac users.
"We're off to a great start, and our competition isn't even out of the starting gates yet," said Apple co-founder and Chief Executive Steve Jobs (news - web sites) in a statement.
Apple, based in Cupertino, California, last week unveiled in San Francisco, in a characteristically glitzy presentation, the Windows version of its popular iTunes software, with Apple's online music store integrated into the program.
Apple said that 14 million songs have now been bought and downloaded since the original, Mac-only iTunes software and music store launch in April.
