Reporting its fiscal 2005 third quarter financial results on Wednesday, Apple announced that it shipped more than 6.1 million iPods during the quarter, topping all analyst estimates, which ranged from 4.8 million to 5.55 million. With today’s report of Apple shipping 6,155,000 iPods during the quarter—about 800,000 more than last quarter and 5.3 million more than a year ago—the total number of iPods sold now stands at over 20 million.
During its second quarter conference call with press and analysts, Apple said that all iPod models made up 75 percent of the entire overall MP3 player market in the month of May. The company also said that the iTunes Music Store now has an 80 percent share of the worldwide digital music business.
I think that is truly amazing, don’t you. The iPod is a great product, mine performs well and is fantastic! No wonder so many people have bought it.
