A $200 gift card going for the equivalent of $2.60 (and zero of that 2.60 going to Apple)? I would expect that right there is higher than the profit margin of an iPod.


Since Apple has to turn around and pay 70% of that $200 to the copyright holders of the purchased content, I'm sure they stand to lose quite a lot more than they could possibly gain.
