Apple’s iTunes Music Store has an 80 per cent share of the UK downloads market, according to new figures from the Official Charts Company, and the biggest music catalogue.
‘We’re thrilled that music fans in the UK have made the iTunes Music Store their number one choice for purchasing digital music,’ said Eddy Cue, Apple’s vice president of iTunes. ‘We feature the largest catalogue in the UK with over 1.7 million songs and strive to bring iTunes customers the hottest new and exclusive content in the world.’
Earlier this week, Napster claimed to have the largest collection of music with 1.6 million songs.
