My Reflection On Findings

The most important fact I found in all of my research was that on February 25, 2010, Apple reached the 10 billion songs sold mark.  That in my opinion is astonishing.  It shows just how big the company is and how much money the company has made since its founding in 2000.  One of the most surprising facts I found in all of my research was that iPods are 77% of MP3 player sales in America.  More than half and more than three fourths of all MP3s are iPods.  I personally think that iPods are a great device and that iTunes is an amazing program, but the varying prices for songs is what I don't exactly agree with.  I think iTunes' prices should stay at $.99 just like Amazon.  It's a good idea to make more money off popular songs; the fact of using a 10 dollar iTunes gift card and purchasing songs that are $3.29 is ridiculous.  I like the fact that Apple releases a new generation of each iPod once a year.  The great propaganda techniques that Apple uses is another key factor that gets people interested--mainly the commercials--in buying Apple products.
