Almost anything that Apple does or touches turns to gold. If their repeated successes with gadgets and toys were not sufficient enough to establish their dominance in the tech world, their iTunes gift card is also making waves. An iTunes gift card is an ideal gift for anyone who owns an Apple device and has an existing access to iTunes.
Beyond the wonders of the world that Apple builds and offers, what are the pros and cons of an iTunes gift card? Surely it cannot be all positives and no negatives. Here’s a pragmatic assessment of what you are signing up for.
