Downloads for Japanese iTunes Hit a Million
An AP newswire article by Yuri Kageyama, via Yahoo! News, reports that:
In just four days, 1 million songs have been downloaded at Apple's new iTunes Music Store in Japan, the fastest pace for the service's launch in any of the 20 nations it's now available, including the U.S., a senior executive said Monday.
Apple, whose iPod portable music player is a big hit in Japan, started its music download service here last Thursday, and has already become the No. 1 online music store in the country. The American version of the service took a week to sell 1 million song downloads, Cue said.
But he acknowledged more work was needed to sign additional record companies for the Japanese service, which now has 15 Japanese labels.
