iTunes Unused Balance

I received an email from iTunes reminding me that I have an unused balance. I used to have an iPhone and bought a few apps here and there. I turned in a large change jar to a Coinstar machine a couple years ago and used it towards iTunes credit. I have since switched to an Android phone which I like much better. I always hated iTunes even when I had an iPhone. I called iTunes when I switched to the Android to see if I could get my money out of this account. For the record, it's $40 and some change. They told me to call Coinstar. Yeah, that got me nowhere. I just set it aside and hadn't really thought of it much until I got this email reminding me. So, I emailed them hoping that there's something that I can do. I get an email back from someone named Arman (of course). He's no help. Can I at least transfer my balance to a friend who will get some use out of it? Nope. Can I use it to buy a gift card? Nope. So, I guess I'll (reluctantly) install iTunes on my desktop PC and buy some movies or something. Did I mention I HATE iTunes?
