About one month after PayPal's previous 15 percent discount on iTunes cards, the company has launched its latest sale for those who have been waiting on a deal to get some free iTunes credit. Like previous discounts, PayPal on its Digital Gifts eBay storefront is offering $100 App Store and iTunes gift cards for $85. While the sale lasts, anyone with a PayPal account can take advantage of the deal, and you should receive the code for the iTunes credit within a few hours after the purchase.

As usual with email delivery sales on iTunes cards, you can either enter your own email address and send the code to yourself, or enter the email of a friend or family member to send it as a gift. The credit will only be valid on purchases made on the United States App and iTunes stores, however.
Coinciding with the new gift card offer, iTunes has some notable discounts on its Movies storefront that might be of interest to users getting iTunes credit today. The sale prices include a collection of Disney films for $14.99 each, as well as some recent 4K releases for as low as $9.99. We've rounded them up below:

While the Logitech MX Master 3 is a terrific mouse for the Mac, reports claiming that Apple CEO Tim Cook prefers that mouse over the Magic Mouse are false.
The Wall Street Journal last month published an interview with Cook, in which he said he uses every Apple product every day. Soon after, The Verge's Wes Davis attempted to replicate using every Apple product in a single day. During that...

In a research note with Hong Kong-based investment bank Haitong today, obtained by MacRumors, Apple analyst Jeff Pu said he agrees with a recent rumor claiming that the so-called "iPhone 17 Air" will be around 6mm thick.
"We agreed with the recent chatter of an 6mm thickness ultra-slim design of the iPhone 17 Slim model," he wrote.

The iOS 18.1.1, iPadOS 18.1.1, and macOS Sequoia 15.1.1 updates that Apple released today address JavaScriptCore and WebKit vulnerabilities that Apple says have been actively exploited on some devices.
With the JavaScriptCore vulnerability, processing maliciously crafted web content could lead to arbitrary code execution. The WebKit vulnerability had the same issue with maliciously crafted...
Nice! When these discounted gift cards come up, I've been using them to pay for my Apple Music and iCloud storage subscriptions, as well as the occasional app or movie purchase. It's not a huge difference, but why not take advantage of a discount when you can?
You pay for Netflix and Hulu with itunes gift cards?
Yup, you have to sign up for netflix and hulu through your apple tv or iOS device, I actually cancelled my original accounts and re-opened them in order to do this. I miss the days of 20% and sometimes 25% off cards, but this isn't bad either.
The 15% off e-delivery iTunes deals are great! If you buy enough and keep your account loaded with these, makes everything through the iTunes store $.85 on the $1.00!
However, let me know about 4k deals when I can DL 4k files. Until then, it's practically moot. At least for my use case, YMMV.
You'll lose everything if iTunes goes out of business one day or if they decide to revoke your license or if you just switch to another platform that iTunes doesn't support.
Any series of events that would lead to Apple shuttering itunes and making previous purchases unusable would probably also make the digit world uninhabitable.
Yes, it seems unlikely today but it's certainly possible. No one knows what's going to happen in the next decades. [doublepost=1520442150][/doublepost]
And when the world is digitally uninhabitable twenty years from now, I'll bet you're gonna wish you had that hundred bucks back.
