Forgive me if this is the wrong place for this thread, feel free to move it to where it belongs if I made the wrong choice.

A discussion came up between my friends and I about Apple's profit and it was about 50/50 on the decision so I figured I'd throw it up to those here. Where does Apple make it's most money, from hardware or it's software offerings? Do they make more money from iPod, Mac, iPhone, iPad, etc sales or do they make more from selling songs, apps, etc from iTunes?

We realize that iTunes and it's apps, movies, and such have really grown/been introduced in the past few years and their hardware sales have been going for years so in the past it may be hardware... but what about the future?

Thanks for any opinions or thoughts. :)
