iTunes Is No. 1 Music Retailer in US

Posted on Aug 7, 08 02:39 AM PDT

It comes as no surprise that Apple's iTunes retains its top spot as the music retailer of choice in the US, at least for the first half of this year. Positions are determined via CD purchases and a-la-carte digital music downloads, and Wal-Mart trails iTunes, followed by Best Buy, Amazon and Target as the third, fourth and fifth positions, respectively. This survey is done by the NPD Group, and it clearly shows the ongoing consumer shift from physical CDs to digital music. Anyone wants to bet whether iTunes will stay as top dog by the end of this year? [Press Release]
