`iTunes Music Store Now Accepts PayPal
`
`CUPERTINO and SAN JOSE, California—December 10, 2004—Apple® and PayPal today announced that the iTunes® Music
`Store in the US will now accept PayPal for purchases of music downloads, audiobooks and gift certificates. Starting today,
`iTunes Music Store purchases can be funded through PayPal’s virtual wallet, allowing customers to pay in the way they
`prefer—using a credit card, bank account or stored account balance. The first 500,000 customers to open a new iTunes
`account in the US using PayPal as their form of payment before March 31, 2005, will receive five free songs.*
`
`“We are thrilled that PayPal users can now buy their music on the world’s number one online music store,” said Todd
`Pearson, general manager of PayPal’s Merchant Services. “PayPal’s virtual wallet offers iTunes customers the convenience of
`paying in the way they prefer.”
`
`With Apple’s legendary ease of use, pioneering features such as iMix playlist sharing, seamless integration with iPod® and
`groundbreaking personal use rights, the iTunes Music Store is the best way for PC and Mac® users to legally discover,
`purchase and download music online. The iTunes Music Store features more than one million songs from the major music
`companies and 600 independent record labels, over 9,000 audiobooks, gift certificates and exclusive music not found
`anywhere else online.
`
`PayPal, an eBay Company, enables any individual or business with an email address to securely, easily and quickly send and
`receive payments online. PayPal’s service builds on the existing financial infrastructure of bank accounts and credit cards
`and utilizes the world’s most advanced proprietary fraud prevention systems to create a safe, global, real-time payment
`solution. Founded in 1998, PayPal has more than 56 million accounts and is available to users in 45 countries around the
`world. More information about the company can be found at https://www.paypal.com/.
