iTMSx100,000,000

Follow-up to the previous post about iTunes's 100 millionth song: I just returned from a Berkeley day trip about 20 minutes ago, and iTunes had sold 99,983,029 songs. I figured it would be a good time to load up the store to make my purchases. However, as far as I can tell, the servers are absolutely overloaded. It still says "accessing" as I type this. Also, the 100 million barrier was soon breached, as in the next ten minutes they sold over 30,000 songs. Wow.
