At his MacWorld keynote, Steve Jobs said Apple sold 14 million iPods in Q4, and 32 million for the calendar year, for a grand total of 42 million over the history of the product. And 850 million iTunes since Day 1.

Jupiter will probably have to raise its MP3 player forecast. Our US music download revenue forecast for 2005 of $550M is looking perhaps 15% low. Songs per device is holding steady at 20, so our long-term forecast assumptions look solid.

Oh, and 8M videos sold. Since everyone who had a video iPod -- and some who didn't -- probably tried it out, I'm not blown away by that last figure.
