that's what I'm talking about. I'm sure mycokemusic, napster, or whatever service in europe never had a week like iTunes had in their first week.

So much for the worry that iTunes had to play catch up in the UK and Europe.
I wonder what'll it be like when the rest of the countries in Europe can buy from iTMS?

This makes all the other stores look pathetic. And it also shows how big iTunes has become. Surpassing the closest competitor by so much... it's simply amazing. If Apple listens to the Europeans and gets those indie artists into the store, it's just going to keep on soaring.

Does anyone have the numbers for how this opening week compares to the ITMS mac debut week and the ITMS windows debut week?
This seems like its a bit on the low side...but maybe I'm just jaded.
