Itunes didn't sell games.
The argument is about digital goods not just video games, but for the record they absolutely did.
You didn't read your own link. From your own Wikipedia link: First game released in 2006. 2 years after Steam.
Books aren't games, either, but you brought them up. Why are different forms of media valid when they support your argument but not when they don't?
They most definitely did. Maybe you should learn about the stuff you’re talking about before posting things that are completely wrong.
Maybe you should look up history before downvoting:

First game on itunes was 2006- 3 years after Steam.
I do not see what your link has to do with your comment. iTunes did sell games, your comment was factually incorrect.
