Oh, and it was on Comedy Central during a South Park re-run (the chris reeve/stem cells/Jimmy and the "Crips" episode).

Apple dont have to check ID's. I am sure its similar in the states, but you have to be 18 to own a credit card here in the UK.
i dont think there are laws about being 18, but that is the normal age people get them, i thnk u can get them earlier, but i'm not sure the age limit or if there is one (obviously they wouldn't want to give one to a 10yr old)
As for the iPod Commercials, I have yet to see one on the air.
You can get a credit card at any age.
Well that is kinda misleading. A CC company can give credit to whomever they want, but if the consumer is under the age of majority (18 in most US States IIRC) then their signature carries no legal authority. Therefor most banks won't let a minor have a CC by themselves. If a parent co-signs for the fantastic plastic, then their ass is on the line for the authority they have granted in their name.
Translation: If you are dumb enough to give a child unfettered access to your financial destruction, then you are probably also the same type of parent that doesn't care about them downloading Eminem. (Though I recognize there are a few parents these days that have taught their kids both personal and financial responsibility, it is rare)
BTW, I looked at porn, drank, smoked, and caused mischief as a kid. But my mom was involved in my life to the point that I didn't do it to my ruin. Parental involvement is key whether kids listen to Eminem or not. Though I am sure that we will see a major lawsuit or distribution restrictions in the next couple of years.
