I got it for the “free downloads” (just one song – and spoon-fed by Apple, and only for one week<\/u>…but, well…free is free, and no matter what genre of songs they give for free, I can still gladly pack them into my barely filled iPod), to commemorate last year’s launch of the iTunes Music Store<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
