In addition to the tips below, we also found this pretty helpful post that will help you think differently when it comes to marketing your material via the retail giant.

Redirect URLs
Make it easier for people to find your content by using a redirect URL. These links can be used on the web, for TV, and in print and are available for music, TV, movies, and apps. As long as your content is available on iTunes or the App Store, you can use a redirect URL. When customers click or type your redirect URL, iTunes or the App Store instantly opens. (This is only valid for artists no label pages and/or label searches can be done via iTunes)
