A song from Johnny Cash was a winner for the man who made the 10 billionth download from the iTunes music service.

Louie Sulcer, a 71-year-old from Georgia, bought the Man in Black's "Guess Things Happen That Way" on Thursday. He got the song for the iPod Nano he received as a birthday gift last year.

For getting the 10 billionth download, Sulcer receives $10,000 worth of free music. He also received a call from Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Corp., which owns iTunes.

The call also included a conversation with Cash's daughter Rosanne, who reportedly told the lucky winner, "We're so proud that the winning pick was one of my dad's songs."
