Details: The iTunes card settlement will resolve a class action lawsuit, entitled Johnson v. Apple, Inc., that alleges Apple advertised, distributed and sold iTunes Gift Cards which stated that songs could be purchased at the Apple iTunes Store for a price of $0.99 per song. It further alleged that in April 2009, Apple raised the price of certain songs at the iTunes Store from $0.99 to $1.29, and that $0.99 iTunes Gift Card holders who purchased $1.29 songs were overcharged. Apple denies any wrongdoing but has agreed to a class action settlement to avoid ongoing litigation.

Under the iTunes Gift Card class action settlement, Apple has agreed to provide an iTunes Store Credit of $3.25 to all Settlement Class Members who submit a claim form by the deadline of September 24, 2012. Class Members of the iTunes card settlement include all U.S. residents who purchased or received an iTunes Gift Card where on the card or the packaging to which it was attached contained the language that “songs are $0.99” or other language indicating that songs are priced at $0.99, and used it to purchase one or more $1.29 songs from the iTunes Store on or before May 10, 2010.

To receive your $3.25 iTunes Store credit from the class action settlement, you must submit an online claim form at www.JohnsoniTunesSettlement.com on or before September 24, 2012. The deadline to exclude yourself and opt out of the class action settlement is December 29, 2011.
