Slashdot | McDonald’s Billion-Song iTunes Giveaway
A million was a big number at one point. Things seem to have changed… One billion iTunes songs? A billion? I mean, yeah, it’s McDonald’s and their pocketbooks really are that deep but … a billion?
I might have to take up my Quarter Pounder™ habit again. 
Update: Oh well. It was fun while it lasted.

Is it just me, or does a “billion” just seem out of range of anything reasonable? The total annual marketing budget for the Americas is about $500 million. Also, the only MP3 player these will work on is the iPod, with about a million sold at this point, leaving… 1,000 songs for every owner of an iPod! I’m going to McDonald’s.
Odd. I just did a trackback to this entry and the main index page shows that, but this page doesn’t show any indication of a trackback!
…nevermind. Posting a comment rebuilt this page and showed the trackback.
Hrm, MacRumors says this is just a rumor. Read the story
