FREE MOOSIC
I was excited to find out that in honor of their 1-year anniversary, iTunes is giving away 1 free song a day for this whole week. What I was not so excited about was that getting the free singles requires you to upgrade your version of iTunes. You all may or may not know that I am very much resistant to what I perceive as unnecessary upgrades; I'm very much a "if it ain't broke" sort of person when it comes to software. I guess it's possible the software had to be upgraded to allow $0.00 purchaces, but I'm worried that I've somehow accidentally sold my soul to Apple. Because you know nobody ever reads those Terms of Service agreements...
Well, if I show up one day with an Apple logo tattooed on my forehead, you'll know what happened.
There was one thing that I was pleased about, though: iTunes lists Avril Lavigne under "Pop". Go iTunes!

You don't actually need to upgrade iTunes to get the free songs. For the day each song is free, it shows up with a price of $0.00 in older versions of iTunes. I "bought" the Foo Fighters song that was free yesterday while I was still running iTunes 4.2.
Ah... well that explains it; I was using 4.1.something.
