Ticketmaster just announced plans to expand its relationship with Apple's iTunes Store, in order to integrate digital album sales alongside concert ticket sales on Ticketmaster.com, according to a MediaPost report.

When it launches, more than 700 acts who sell tickets through Ticketmaster are participating in the service. "Through the end of the year, the companies will offer ticket purchasers $1 off every digital album sold on Ticketmaster.com through the iTunes Store."

Apple and Ticketmaster will also offer Ticketmaster + iTunes gift card packs at Target retail stores in a single $50 package, which will include two $25 cards redeemable at Ticketmaster.com and the iTunes Store, according to the report.
