Jinn?
According to critics, an eavesdropper, constantly striving to go behind the curtains of heaven in order to steal divine secrets. May grant wishes.

150 million online songs, and counting

Apple announced yesterday that they have sold more than 150 million songs from the iTunes Music Store... iTunes users are now downloading more than 4 million songs per week, a rate of over 200 million songs per year. That annual rate of sale corresponds to an almost 2% share of the music industry's revenue. I think Apple's share will grow to 10% by early 2006, i.e. more than $1b in online music sales. Apple barely makes a profit on the music it sells. The profits come from iPod sales, which overwhelmingly dominate the market for mobile music players.
