iTunes expands After successfully conquering their own operating systems downloading war, Apple is tackling Windows. On Thursday, Apple launched their long awaited Windows version of iTunes, a legal online downloading service.

The online music service features over 400,000 songs and promises to add new features and more songs shortly. Steve Jobs, Apple Computers CEO, said in a press conference, "This isn't some baby version of iTunes. It's the whole thing." On the Macintosh service alone, 13,000,000 songs have been downloaded in only six months. Apple's service accounts for over 70 percent of all legal downloading. Apple is hoping to bring iTunes to much a wider audience with the Windows operating system used on over 90 percent of all computers.
