- 9.5 Million Songs Per Day
On February 27th, Apple announced that it had sold 4 billion songs total in the iTunes Music Store. Today, Apple quietly announced that it has now sold over 5 billion songs. Let’s do some quick math. It has been 114 days. One billion songs in 114 days is just over 9.5 million songs every day.
Also, Apple rents 50,000 movies every day. That is about 18 million songs each year.
Apple must feel pretty confident that even with other companies trying desperately to compete with their iTunes model, the amount of time between their milestones is shorter and shorter. The first billion was reached in almost 3 years (Feb 23, 2006), the next billion in ten months (Jan. 6, 2007), the third billion in about 7 months (July 31, 2007) and the fourth billion in 7 months (Feb. 27, 2008), and only three and a half months to sell its fifth billion (June 19, 2008).
With just over 6 months left in 2008, do you think iTunes sales will top 7 billion?
Переслать - Out of the Park Baseball 9 released
Mac-using baseball fans rejoice! Out of the Park Developments has released Out of the Park Baseball 9 (OOTP 9), a major update to its professional baseball simulator. For those unfamiliar with it, OOTP 9 allows you to play general manager of a professional baseball team. OOTP 9 adds a good number of new features, including a faster simulation engine, more customization options, improved AI, and more. Best of all, the Mac version is now a universal binary—yay! I’ve been playing Out of the Park Baseball for a couple of years now, and I enjoy the game, but have long been frustrated by the lack of a universal binary.
OOTP 9 is available for download from the Out of the Park Developments site, and costs $39.99.
