Apple has started selling iTunes Gift Certificates through their online Apple Store
iTunes Gift Certificates were introduced alongside iTunes for Windows on October 16th. Gift Certificates were created to allow iTunes users to send pre-set amounts of iTunes Music Store credit to anyone with an email address.
