Nearly two years after purchasing an iPod and storing my music on iTunes, and about a year after buying a CD, I finally downloaded two songs from the iTunes music store.
It seems Starbucks has a ‘Pick of the Week’ featuring a different song each week, where patrons can walk out of the physical store with free cards that specify redeemable codes to download songs.
This week’s song is “So Many People to Love” by Carly Simon.
I don’t own any (other) songs by Carly Simon, but a free song is a free song, no?
Around the same time I was looking at the iTunes music store website, I saw the music video for “Famous Last Words” by My Chemical Romance on Comcast’s alternative music channel… so bought the 99-cent song on impulse.
It’s convenient, for sure. But how often will I be playing songs on my computer or listening on my iPod?
