As of about a year ago, Apple was selling about 21 million songs a day. That's a lot of no ones.

That said, Apple hasn't had much impact on other types of music delivery--although it's probably worth noting that the business models associated with those other types of music delivery are a lot less clear than selling individual songs is.
