cash Apple’s iTunes has sold its 10 billionth tune.

Apple said Thursday that its online music store crossed the threshold Wednesday when 71-year-old Louie Sulcer of Woodstock, Ga., bought “Guess Things Happen That Way” by Johnny Cash.

iTunes had promoted the 10 billion mark and celebrated the milestone by giving Sulcer a $10,000 iTunes gift card.

Introduced in 2003, iTunes became the top overall music retailer in the U.S. in 2008.

Stuart,
Johnny Cash was a singer before the days of rap/crap…He wore his pants the way they were intended and not around his knees…He didn’t have any gold teeth or dreds and…Nor did he have some ho’s dancing in the background being degraded by a group degenerates that think rhyming is an art!…
