Darn! Most of the good songs on iTunes are now $1.29. And if you have an iPod, you may think that’s the easiest way to purchase music…not so! Amazon.com still offers lots of music for only $.99 and they have an mp3 downloader that will put the music right into the iTunes software for you so that it ends up on your iPod next time you sync it. It is really easy and has saved me a fair amount of money not only because it’s cheaper, but because they also frequently offer coupon codes for free music. Just a couple of weeks ago, I got 3 free songs by using the coupon code MP34FREE. (It may still be working, give it a try! Comment and let others know if it works for you.)
They also have a loooooooooong list (over 1300) of totally free songs. Not just a handful every week like iTunes does, but a bunch that are free every.single.day. Some are good, some are not, but there’s a little something for every musical taste in there.
And if you like Christmas music, they are offering a new song FREE each day this month!
Now if I can only save enough to get myself an iPod dock…
