Edited: I wanted to see how many of the free downloads I have missed, so I did a little research. I think there are three days left of the daily free downloads. Today is Counting Crows, I am told. I haven't been at my laptop all day. Tomorrow will be Renee Fleming, who I'm unaware of, and then Wednesday will be Nelly Furtado. After that Apple will start giving a free download each week to showcase a particular artist.
Apple is marking the first anniversary of its iTunes Music Store by thanking its customers with a free song of the day for the next eight days from artists who have helped make iTunes a runaway success, including Foo Fighters, Avril Lavigne, Courtney Love, Annie Lennox, Jane’s Addiction, Counting Crows, Renee Fleming and Nelly Furtado. Following the anniversary celebration, the iTunes Music Store will continue to offer a “Free Single of the Week” from up-and-coming bands, spotlighting emerging artists and offering iTunes customers a risk-free way to discover new music.Source of this information.
