Apple: Download the 50 Billionth App Store App, Win $10k!

Back in February, Apple was encroaching on a milestone. The company hit 25 billion iTunes downloads, leading the company to allow the 25 billionth iTunes downloader to win a $10,000 gift card and a trip to an Apple Store to get their prize.

Now, Apple is prepping for their next milestone, nearly doubling their iTunes one by giving a prize to whoever downloads the 50 billionth App Store download a $10,000 grand prize. However, the grand prize winner isn’t the only one going to get the limelight. The 50 subsequent App Store users who download after Apple reaches their 50 billionth milestone will each win a $500 app store gift card.
