Diet Mt. Dew tends to be my drink of choice these days - which is cool, because it is one of the drinks that is part of
Pepsi's current iTunes promotion. It seems that recently I have run into a bit of a hot streak:
So, last night I went to the iTunes Music Store and redeemed my prizes. Since I wasn't "paying" for these, I decided to branch out and look for some different kinds of "stuff". Here's what I picked:
"Heart of Mine" - Norah Jones & The Peter Malick Group
"Crazy Love" - Ray Charles & Van Morrison
"Here We Go Again" - Ray Charles & Norah Jones
"Lot of Leavin' Left to Do" - Dierks Bentley
"Awful Beautiful Life" - Darryl Worley
"The Benevolent One" - Dave Holland Quintet
"Serenade" - Dave Holland Quintet
I cheated a bit as I was already a Norah Jones fan. That woman has one of the greatest singing voices I've ever heard. Otherwise, it was (IMO) quite an eclectic combination of choices. But a great marketing campaign for both Pepsi and Apple. I bought a soda and then won a chance to "try" the Apple Music Store. Neat concept - and it was the first time I'd redeemed a bottle cap for a song. The last wave of free tunes must have fallen off of the Pepsi truck on the way to Indianapolis because I didn't get a single winner. ;-)
What did you use your free tunes for?
