A dispute with you credit card if you paid by card ought to do the trick. If that doesn't work, Small Claims Court works well in most US states- it may be a pain, but if more consumers would use it in ridiculous cases like this, companies would improve.

While I agree a credit card might theoretically offer recourse, in practice I think what would happen is I would end up locked out of my iTunes account and I would discover that all my past "purchases" would be better described as "donations".

There seems to be an issue with Apple refund process. We are escalating it with Apple.

I understand your pain! Sounds like someone might be looking into your refund, I hope it works out!
