Apple today announced that a record setting 3.3 million songs have been purchased and downloaded from its third generation iTunes Music Store (iTMS) since its launch one week ago. Apple also said that music fans have already published more than 20,000 iMixes, which have been rated by fellow iTunes users over 50,000 times. In addition to the 3.3 million purchased songs, iTunes users have downloaded more than 500,000 free songs during Apple’s week-long “Free Song of the Day” anniversary promotion. “Our third generation iTMS just blows away any other online music service,” said Apple CEO Steve Jobs. “With over 700,000 songs and innovative features like iMix, it’s the easiest to use and most fun to use online music store in the world.”
