I didn't mean to say it was "nothing". I meant to say not much for a company like Apple. We have to see it in relation to their overall business.
I know you were talking profits, but I couldn't find the figures for it. However, I would argue that the iTunes store is worth much more than just those sales figures. Without the ecosystem that iTunes provides, I believe that the sales of Apple hardware (computers, iPhones, iPads, etc) would be a lot lower.
