Post Teen Showered with Prizes After Downloading iTune's Billionth Song

Michigan teenager Alex Ostrovsky didn't realize that when he downloaded Coldplay's "Speed of Sound" from iTunes he was buying the one-billionth song sold from the service since it started three years ago.

The 16-year-old got a 20-inch iMac, a $10,000 iTunes gift card and 10 fifth-generation iPods from Apple for his lucky click. The company is also establishing a Julliard School of Music scholarship in Ostrovsky's name.

The popularity of iTunes is also reflected in declining CD sales, with sales dropping by nearly 150 million from 2001 to 2005.
