iTunes: a future addiction?

 

Prior to, and in anticipation of, the iPod Touch announcement earlier this month, I began making better use of the iTunes store. Rather than using it to find podcasts and free music, I began exploring the app store and even tentatively adding potential purchases to my basket.

I haven't really spent much in the past 3 weeks, maybe £20 all together on things that I really want. Admittedly £9 of that was on PangeaVR Pro, which I wish I hadn't spent as the free version is exactly the same from what I can tell :(

The Genius feature in iTunes certainly hasn't helped matters by recommending various songs that really appealed to me.

The multiple receipts I receive do get annoying, but I can live with them!

With stores like Woolworths and HMV no longer selling singles in store, iTunes is certainly going to take up a bigger part of my budget, especially since I haven't used a P2P application for over 2 years now!
