Coinstar announced Monday that iTunes gift cards or eCertificates have been added as options at Coinstar Centers. Coinstar operates kiosks at grocery stores and other retail outlets across the U.S. that convert loose coins to cash for an 8.9% fee.

In the company's announcement, Coinstar noted that there is an estimated US$10.5 billion in spare change hoarded in the U.S. As the company put is, "that's 10 billion iTunes downloads to be had, which is enough to fill nearly 44 million1GB iPod Shuffles!"
