+ - Apple now #1 US music retailer->

Submitted by Quantrell
Quantrell writes "A leaked e-mail shows that Apple hit the #1 spot in January when it comes to music sales. The company passed Wal-Mart to move into the #1 slot as consumers likely cashed in their gift cards. The news is a mixed bag for the record labels, however. 'For the music industry, there is a dark side to Apple's ascension to the top of the charts. Buying patterns for digital downloads are different, as customers are far more likely to cherry pick a favorite track or two from an album than purchase the whole thing. In contrast, brick-and-mortar sales are predominantly high-margin CDs.'"
