For the latest music, see the Free iTunes 2006 thread.

Here, from most recent to least recent, is a list of tunes in the iTunes Music Store that were free downloads in 2005. Bold marks tunes that appear to be free indefinitely. Apple generally issues new free music on Tuesdays, when I check for it and update this list. Please post to this thread if you spot other free tunes. Links to the newest free iTunes can usually be found in the bottom right corner of the iTMS home page. When a song is newly offered, the last link on the line below works best. For songs from past weeks or months, the first link is typically better. For abbreviations used here, see post below.

Total for 2005: 173 tunes, 14.3 hours, 841.8MB

It appears it was a Hanukkah, Christmas, or Kwanzaa resolution instead. None last week either. Anybody who finds one should let us know.
 
This is something I have been wondering about - the iTunes Canada store does not offer the FREE DOWNLOAD OF THE WEEK.

Does anyone know why they do not offer this? Is this a legal issue or an Apple issue?
 
It wasn't there straight after launch in the UK either. Took a few months - presumably until the record companies figured out that pushing an unknown-ish artist this way was a good thing.

They have a different one in the UK this week although I had to get to it from the iTunes New Music Tuesday email rather than from the home page which was still showing last week. Can't remember who it was - just that they were from Sheffield.

Are you talking about the one Knox shows above or a different tune?
 
The free downloads are a good idea, and sometimes I get them, but it's often too much trouble to sign into iTMS, put in a fake US address, download the song, then sign into ADC and put my real address back in :eek: :D

Actually, now that my ADC subscription has expired, I guess I can leave the US address in there.

I just use two accounts, one with a UK address and one with a (real, but not mine) US address :)

Free Sample Album
Click to expand...
Thanks! Where did you hear about it or how did you come across it?

In general, we'll always want to know HOW whenever anyone finds freebies, so we can all help look for them and share what we find in the future.
 
This was a freebie for purchasers of iPods... It's titled "iTunes New Music Sampler", so I guess you could ocassionally google that...

The Sampler includes three tunes that were previously available as Discovery Downloads, including "All At Sea", which was the very first Discovery Download last year.

Oddly, every song is shown in the Sampler as genre "Pop", and they will come out in your library as Pop, even though they are of mixed genres and are shown correctly elsewhere in the iTunes Music Store. I put the correct genres in the list above.

Incidentally, the free sampler album doesn't work in the UK. Are they country specific?

Yes, which is why Knox volunteered to do the U.K. list last year and this year, while I try to keep up with the U.S. store. Maybe someday we'll have versions for every iTMS store.
 
They're certainly not skimping it on the free downloads this week in the US store - there's another two online, linked from the front page.

AT40 "Out of the Box" download
Aslyn Be the Girl

Carson Daly>>most requested "Catch of the Week" download
Brooke Valentine featuring Big Boi & Lil Jon - Girlfight
 
Thanks for the corrected Genres on that iTunes Sampler :)

How long have the "Out of the Box" and "Catch of the Week" free downloads been going on? I use the iTunes free songs iMix and never saw them. (Then again, that iMix also missed the Vol. 2 Mixtape.) Are those new for the first time this week? Seems like they will be weekly now.

BTW, that Girlfight link doesn't work. But search for Girlfight in iTunes and you'll quickly see the free song.

Anyway, 4 free songs today--and that's even WITHOUT a DD showing up :)

I bet other free songs, given away by labels for various small promotions, are all over the store from time to time if you happen across them.

PS, Don't forget to grab the latest "Mixed Tape" songs from Mercedes-Benz when they update every month (or two?):

(I had another link that didn't work--this one should.)
