It hasn’t been announced officially, but I’m betting the Zit Picker was the 500 millionth download from the iTunes iPhone App store. The multitouch feature is optimized for accurate and complete virtual zit picking. Apple took a stand early and refused some early vile applications, but iBeer enjoyed huge success and Apple realized they could not be the decider when it came to good taste, because a short time later, the iPhone iFart app hit the stores.
