Wow... ungrateful. Do you say this when someone buys you a present you don't like? "You might as well not have bothered unless it was at least something good!" Did you lose anything by opening the 12 days of Christmas app or downloading the gift? Are you angry that apple took up a few MB of space on your device? I don't get it.. noone's making you download this content for free!
Because it starts on the 26th, local time. Guessing you aren't in the UK. It's up in the US now.
Ummm, yes they are. Go look at the iOS TOS. It's there, plain as day. Apple requires you do download this gift app. I didn't believe it myself, but there it was. Steve would never have allowed this
That's subjective. There are a lot of folks that like Justin Timberlake and will think this a fantastic gift, even if folks here don't.
They haven't changed it, you can still download it free from iTunes.

The gifts were region specific, so if you create accounts in different regions you can get more than 12 different gifts.
Surprised at the reaction for JT. I think he's one of the more talented artists of this generation.
This probably explains it.

I thought 20/20 Experience was dull. So I didn't much care for this freebie either. Looking forward to the next 11 gifts though as we've gotten some other cool freebies in the past.
Three thumbs down
This is one of the very few times I will bash apple but they deserve it being the wealthiest company worldwide and giving away justin timber lake and lorde heroine? With an e unfortunately? Is there anybody over 20 who will listen justin or lorde? And why the hell such a bloated app with almost no function? 150mb? Apple get real, offer books, movies, and songs choice. Where are you, the kingdom and future of unanimity?

This is garbage. The music sounds like it was recorded by a fan using their cell phone. Apple is notorious for having deals that are a ripoff. Like offering .99 cent movies that just happened to be on netflix/amazon for free. Maybe Apple could gift me a free viewing of their commercials for the next free gift tomorrow
Blah! This app is crap it does not work and even if it did all it is going tobe are bunch of free Pop music, amazed at the crap some people listen to still.
Nope, I use the US App Store and am in Europe, the download was available at midnight EST.
It would be one thing if Apple were offering one of JT's studio recordings, but this is a recording of a (in my opinion) crummy live performance. After previewing the gifted tracks, I can say I have no plans to ever attend a JT concert.
I don't think you understand how Netflix or Amazon operates their company.
If you could please direct me to this 'free' section of Netflix or Amazon that would be greatly appreciated.
