Why can't Apple just give away some sort of voucher redeemable against a song or video then people can happily choose what they want. Their current method causes complaints every year.

Not that we are getting it but the One direction is current and relevant to the younger audience I'm guessing. Its not like they've given away Cilla Black or something. Probably couldnt fault them on this, though like I say, not to our taste.

That would be nice. But maybe they only pay out to the artist/author concerned based on the number of downloads. So if one direction only get 5 downloads today (one can only hope!!) they only pay them a fiver. Whereas if they gave everyone a credit that would be £300m. Mind you they could make them time limited so they wouldn't lose quite so much and not do 12 days of it. I'd be happy for them to just give us one free music download of our choice.

how can you complain about something which is free?
admittedly, so far it hasn't been great, but didn't cost me anything so who cares? |

I was actually doing quite well, not complaining at all but admittedly I failed at today's offering!

Woah, tonight's freebie is a biggie, two series pilot episodes (House, and 30 Rock) in both SD and HD, which run to about 3.2GB in total. Apple's servers may take a serious battering if everyone gets this tomorrow.

More rubbish today then. i really dont see the point in giving away a single episode of a tv show, but maybe thats just me
.BTW, if you like your racing games then Shift 2 unleashed is currently free, both iphone and ipad versions. Wouldn't be too surprised if it was tomorrows freebie actually. |

.![]() You get the 1st episode for free to wet the appetite then if you like it you may decide to purchase the rest. |

Maybe with all the moaning about the "free" things, Apple just shouldnt bother giving anyone anything next year.

Did anyone work out how to switch off the dreadful "music" playing over the top?

Downloaded the free travel book but then deleted it as it was impossible to read on the iphone.
