    Cool, it'll be interesting to see what goes free since I never get music on itunes.


    EDIT: link opened in iTunes and said not available in the US AppStore... which makes sense I guess since it's not the 26th yet. :p

    It is currently unavailable on the US App Store. I wonder if we'll get the promotion as well.

    I am not sure, maybe the link above is not for everyone (I got it from my email), and I don't have iTunes on my computer to get a more exact link.

    Also, it hasn't started, so that could be another reason.

    Surely, it has to be worldwide.

    Ok, based on previous years, this is NOT available in the US. Available in Canada, UK, Europe, Asia and probably everywhere else.

    Seems to be the case. I'm from Canada and was able to download this since early December.

    Oh here's the kicker, as an early gift they've listed Rod Stewart's Let It Snow music video. When I click the link, I get "Your request could not be completed. The item you've requested is not currently available in the Canadian Store." -- Awesome.

    Why thank you. I wanted to put a few oldies but I thought too many people wouldn't know the songs.. Stuff like "tiptoe through the tulips" and "sexual healing" some Gary glitter and what not.

    Nah, Apple is devoted to the English language. I doubt they'd promote such drivel and nonsense as the Gangnam Style.

    Yes but it would be better than amazon's deal of it costing 10p that they had earlier.

    Bahaha I wanted to include gangnam style but apple would never give it away for free with all the douchebags obsessed with it lately. Apples probably making a ton of money of the gangnam douche rush.

    Best quote on touch arcade ever.
    Without the horsey bit that would be signature worthy.
    But it is also the truth!

    So did this every actually start? Is it Canada only?

    EDIT: App link still shows it as being unavailable in the U.S. so not sure what stores are participating (like Canada and Europe based on previous sales)

    DAY 1: Maroon 5 Holiday EP (a different Japanese artist EP in Japan iTunes)
    DAY 2: Score! Classic Goals, game by First Touch
    DAY 3: GeoMaster Plus HD, app by Visuamobile

    ... so far a disappointing mix. years before Mirror's Edge was free on the very first day, followed by Coldplay EP, a tv series pack season premieres, etc.
