Starbucks Music Giveaway

September 27, 2007 | ISSUE 43•39

Starbucks announced that they would be giving away 1.5 million songs a day for one month to promote their music arm and iTunes deal. What do you think?

I worry how this big partnership will affect mom and pop mp3 stores.

Finally, I can recreate that rockin' mix I always hear at my local Starbucks in my own home.

I can download Starbucks music on my iPhone while ordering a latte and talking on a conference call? Wow, I've hit the douchebag trifecta!
