Apple said Wednesday that its iTunes Music Store set a new download record of 3.3 million songs in the week since the third-generation store was introduced. 500,000 of those downloads came in the form of free songs from popular commercial artists made available as part of a "Free Song of the Day" promotion to celebrate the store's one-year anniversary.
