Since getting my Touch, my iTunes addiction has skyrocketed.

Since getting my Touch (April '08), I've spent $96.30 of my total $283.55 in iTunes purchases.

Ridiculous? You betcha. Let's just hope the girlfriend doesn't find that number out ;)
 
Get a new girlfriend. :)


I haven't spent that much, but I can see how easy and addictive it is to buy stuff on itunes with a Touch. I'm considering something like maybe one small gift card a month, like an allowance, and forcing myself to not exceed that.
 
$96 for 4 months? Thats not alot. $6 a week. people go to a movie with a date and its 20 dollars.

it may not be much to y'all, but that's more than I should be spending!

I know how you feel. At first wasn't sure how much id use it over the regular store and then i bought 1 tune off it and i was like wa-hey that was so easy. Felt satisfying as well so had to try it again and again and thats how it starts haha

No worries mate; I have 250GBs of iTunes purchases… that's a lot of money spent on iTunes.
 
You'd better kick that iTunes addiction. Instead, buy your songs from Amazon.com. It's pretty much like iTunes except the songs are .mp3 files and they are DRM-free.
 
I've spent a little over $25. The only reason I even spent that much is because I got iTunes giftcards. I get all my music elsewhere, along with TV shows and movies.
 
Since the App store came about, iv never bought so much off of iTunes. I never bought anything before. Not one song. in 3 weeks iv spent maybe 50 or so dollars on iTunes
 
While I don't actually get my (digital) music from Amazon, if I were you I would. Cheaper, mp3's, no DRM, and they're at higher bit rates, right?
 
My purchased items consists of 558 items + 47 apps. So I have spent well over $600 on iTunes in 2 years. Right now I am getting music from my local library--its cheap, and it has better sound quality.:D
 
I've spent somewhere over $200 at Itunes in the last 6 months. If the Apps keep coming I'll probably spend more than that in the next 6 months.
