Christmas day is typically a day of family, friends, lots of eating and having a good time. This year however it was also a time for pounding on your favorite online service of choice, as companies such as Nintendo with their Wii Store and Apple with iTunes saw massive increases in traffic as people who received a Wii or iPod for Christmas went online to their respective stores for the first time. Most roughly at the same time.
Hitwise, a site which monitors Internet traffic trends spotted a 413% jump in traffic to iTunes this Christmas over Christmas 2005. An article at InformationWeek further breaks down how Apple and the iPod beat Microsoft's Zune by a ratio of 30-to-1.

If you wana have a good laugh just linger around a Future Shop or Best Buy salesman, the things they say to sell is just too funny and they will buy.
