Apple allows donations to help The Big Apple, in iTunes

Apple has added a button to the home page of its iTunes Store that clicks through to a page where you can use your iTunes account to donate money to "Help Superstorm Sandy survivors."

The page lists six different donation amounts ranging from $5 to $200 – all you need to do is click the Donate button under each amount, and "iTunes will transfer 100% of your donation to the American Red Cross."

That's right – 100 per cent. There'll be no 30 per cent cut taken by Apple for its eleemosynary enablement.

There can be no argument, even among the most hardened cynics must agree, that the poor souls most affected by the ravages of that hurricane – or "post–tropical storm", an important distinction if you're an insurance company – need all the help they can get.
