Apple Celebrates '5 Years of the App Store' With Poster Sent to ReportersTim Bradshaw, a tech reporter with the Financial Times, received this poster from Apple celebrating the upcoming 5-year anniversary of the App Store. The App Store, which originally launched on July 10, 2008, has seen more than 50 billion app downloads across nearly a million individual apps. Apple sent a similar promotional item to reporters to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the iTunes Store, though that version included a gift card redeemable for 100 songs hand-picked by the iTunes staff.
