An Apple milestone: 100 million iPods sold
By
Apple Inc.s announcement Monday that it has sold 100 million of its iPod music players marks more than just a business milestone for the once-struggling computer company.
Apple said Monday that it had sold 100 million iPods since the gadget was introduced in November 2001. The company also noted that it had sold more than 2.5 billion songs, 50 million TV shows and more than 1.3 million movies through its iTunes music and media store. If there was any doubt, the numbers offer definitive proof that the iPod has crossed from being a gadget for music lovers and technology geeks to being a mainstream hit with everyone from kids riding the bus to grandparents out for an afternoon walk.
