iTunes outsells traditional music stores
Apple Computer's iTunes music store now sells more music than Tower Records or Borders, according to analyst firm the NPD Group.
During the past three months, iTunes made it to the U.S. Top 10 sales list for the first time, NPD said.
"Taking their growth and others' pain, it's not inconceivable to see them cracking into higher ground in the foreseeable future," said NPD music and movies industry analyst Russ Crupnick.
The benchmark is a meaningful sign in digital music's steady progress--and Apple's domination of that trend--toward becoming a significant part of the overall music business.
