No Purchase Necessary for Apple Contest

February 7th, 2006

As you probably know, Apple is running a Billion Songs Countdown Promotion. At every 100,000 purchase from the iTunes Music Store, some lucky music fan will win a 4GB black iPod nano and one U.S. $100 iTunes Music Card (good for any media type). Also, the billionth song purchaser will win a new 20-inch iMac, ten 60GB iPods (5 white/5 black) and one U.S. $10,000 iTunes Music Card.

BUT! What you may not realize is that this is a sweepstakes, and as such, there is no purchase necessary. According to the official rules, you can actually use an a alternative entry form. You’re limited to 25 entries per day. Of course, a few minutes ago, the form was broken, but it seems to be back up now.

Have fun overloading those servers :)

The Library

I've removed the little flash player that was here for now. It was causing some problems with the site in several browsers... okay... mostly it was IE6 because... well... I'm fairly sure that Microsoft hates me.

For now, you can view the Complete Library page, which is kind of a master list of every single track we've linked to.
