Won a 50 dollar iTunes gift card. What should I buy?

I had a choice between gift cards for several restaurants that are hard to find up here, a 50 shell gift card or the itunes card. I close the later since none of the others interested me. But I'm not much of a music person either. Are there any apps on the store that are actually worth purchasing? Most of the apps and games seem like junk but I'm sure there must be a few good ones? If not I'll probably spend it on movies.


I could probably also sell it for 45 bucks or something but I'm honestly too lazy to bother with that. I'd probably just spend the money on something anyway since it was free cash.
 
Sell it or trade it for an amazon gift card?

itunes = worthless, as you have to install unstable bloated 3rd party software to retrieve anything.
 
Rent a bunch of movies for $5-$6 (new ones), buy 2 movies ($20 in HD), buy music at $1-$1.30 a song...
 
These are the ones I'd recommend:

- Infinity Blade: I think this may be the best "hardcore" iOS game out there so far.
- Osmos: Really fun indie game.
- Katamari: It's not as great as the PS2 original (but then again, what is?) but it's fucking Katamari!
- Bookworm: This and Infinity Blade see the most time on the iTouch.
- Rage HD': More of a graphics demo than anything, but it looks impressive and you can show it off to friends.

Of course, there's always Final Fantasy 1/2/3 to consider, you know, the ones where it was actually "good" before all the shovelware FFs Square-Enix started making; and I'm waiting for Final Fantasy Tactics to come out.

I might consider more games from Popcap like Peggle and Plants vs. Zombies. I believe they have puzzle quest on the thing as well.
