Economics student Phillip Luepke, 22, of Hanover, Germany, downloaded the techno song \u201cMonkey Drums (Goksel Vancin Remix)\u201d by British DJ Chase Buch, hitting the number a decade after the online music store debuted. \u201cI was very surprised to hear the news,\u201d Luepke told Reuters by phone from his home in Germany. \u201cI woke up this morning and had an email from Apple saying I had the 25 billionth download,\u201d he said. \u201cIn fact, I didn\u2019t quite believe it at first. It\u2019s a new feeling for me.\u201d Luepke, who is currently studying for exams, said he came across the song at a disco last Saturday night. He used the song-identification smartphone application Shazam to look up its name, after which he downloaded \u201cMonkey Drums\u201d the following evening. Luepke, who will celebrate over a few beers with friends, said he is not sure how he will spend the gift certificate, but he is confident that his music and movie collection will grow. Cupertino, Califoria-based Apple launched the iTunes store in April 2003 and has averaged about 15,000 songs downloaded each minute. The store has a catalog of more than 26 million songs in 119 countries.","author_name":"christian-langos-KART-WM","author_url":"https:\/\/www.dailymotion.com\/christian-langos-KART-WM","width":480,"height":269,"html":"
