Uses

• An iTunes gift card can be used to purchase music, movies, TV shows, audio books, games and applications for your iPod or iPhone.
  
  

Why Can't an iTunes Gift Card be Used to Purchase iPods?

• iTunes gift cards can't be used to purchase iPods because the iTunes Store only sells content for the iPod. It doesn't actually sell iPods or iPhones.
  
  

Forms

• iTunes gift cards can be given as a paper computer printout, as an email or as a physical gift card. The form doesn't affect the function, however--iTunes gift cards can only be used for iTunes purchases.
  
  

Apple Gift Cards

• If you want to give someone a gift card to be used to purchase a new iPod, give her a gift card to an Apple Store rather than an iTunes gift card.
  
  

Uses for Apple Gift Cards

• An Apple gift card is essentially the opposite of an iTunes gift card, as it can be used in an Apple retail store or the online store to purchase iPods and other Apple products, but it can't be used to purchase content for your iPod in the iTunes Store.
