| Well, I was off by ~12 hours (sorry), but the iTMS finally topped 1/2 billion at about 5:50 pm EST. Congratualtions to whoever the contest winner was.

| i clicked right around that time (give or take a few minutes)... but I got a purchase error, and prompted to try again later... I rebooted itunes and gave it one more go but my damn network went down (purposefully by an annoying roomate working on his vonage phone) before download... The purchase registered and I got the song an hour later... Wonder how close i might have come... my guess is the original purchase error must have come from thousands of people clicking at the same time.. Good luck to all the members here... |
