Well, if you sell a song by credit/debit card for £1, then you'd pay bank like 20 pence + 2%, 70 pence I think go to labels, so not much money left...

Who are they trying to kid? did the use the same consultancy firn as the Gov't that generated this morings recession figures? (own up, who is it?)

Over 1 billion downloads and no profit?
Earlier this week, Steve jobs was quoted "If you annualize our quarterly revenue, it’s surprising that Apple is now a $50+ billion company," he said. "The new products we are planning to release this year are very strong, starting this week with a major new product that we’re really excited about."

Edit..Yes I know most of their revenue comes from the price fixing structure they have in place for the Iphones...

He's surprised?
