description: I'm surprised Apple's music store sold one million songs to Mac users in its first week. At 99 cents per track, I don't see why consumers prefer it over the free alternatives found on P2P networks.

[Apple's music store](http://www.apple.com/music/store/) sold over 1 million songs in a week. To Mac users alone. At 99c (Rs 50) a song, I don't see how that happened. Or why it's better than P2P. [via MetaFilter](http://www.metafilter.com/mefi/25600)
