Okay, right now I have 95 purchased iTunes tracks! I am leading for right now. Remember this is only purchased (not ripped or imported) tracks only!

List your # of purchased tracks here 😀
 
Well in the past 2 weeks I bought 9 or 10 albums (ranging from 10~18 songs per album) off iTunes from the top of my head. I still prefer the quality and experience of buying CD's. Y'know spending 1 minute to open the plastic, then sampling each track on the way home then looking through the booklet xD. Most of the media I buy from iTunes are season passes. Buying from iTunes more than anything is just a nice convenience. But I still welcome the higher quality tracks xD

Since I'm at work right now I'll just average the past 2 weeks like umm between 108~120 at 12 tracks an album. 🙂

Cool, do you buy the full albums or single songs mostly?

Mostly albums and some of the iTunes essentials lists...about half of the stuff is Spanish pop/rock music that I listened to while learning the language. I've got some stuff even my native Spanish-speaking friends never heard of before I had them listen to it.
 
I have purchased 693 items from the iTunes store.

25 albums

around 200 separate songs

9 music videos

6 Audiobooks

0 TV shows (I would buy lots if they were available in the UK)

0 Movies (I would buy lots if they were available in the UK)

Many years ago Steve Jobs reported on iTMS sales, saying that one person had spent over $30,000. That was years ago, when the total sales had only been several million.

Wow, how can I spend $30000 then? I'm up to 131 items right now in terms of purchased tracks.

ARGH! Don't remind me...I had the same thought (but with a Mac Pro). Well, I've taken some small precautions to foil any future impulse or binge purchases.

I wonder if I can return them for Apple Store credit? Surely they can refurbish the songs and sell them again to someone else. 😀

Recycled songs? Interesting... don't think so...

I don't mind downloading more actually. I feel bad that I haven't downloaded enough anyways 😀
 
Songs

I am trying to get all the UK number ones at the moment and I have quite a few gift cards, so I'll be buying quite a bit soon. I'll let you know the result in the future

You bring up a good point with recycled songs. Not understanding the details behind digital music.....why would this not be possible?? I thought with iTunes songs you actually OWN the song (like a CD purchase). So, if there was a place where you could sell your rights back from that song for say.... $0.30 and then they could be resold by the purchaser for $0.75.....Can someone explain to me why that isn't possible? Seems like it should work.....Thanks and sorry to get off topic.

Isn't she number one in UK charts right now?

No, it's The Proclaimers featuring Brian Potter & Andy Pipkin with "(I'm Gonna Be) 500 Miles" 🙄

Amy Winehouse hasn't had a number one, yet. However, her album did go to number 1.
