iTunes 12 Days of Christmas – 1st freebie!

Apple has started its campaign iTunes 12 days of Christmas (iTunes link) delivering 1 free download a day every day starting 26 December 2009 till 6 January 2010.

What’s unique about this story is that Apple is going about it via a free standalone app, notifying you about the freebie of the day and letting you post news of the download onto your Facebook profile. Also interesting is that select European countries have been chosen exclusively for this campaign.

The 1st song available on the Austrian Store is a video of a live performance by Die Fantastischen Vier ‘Spiesser”.

More information on this website (in German) : http://www.itunes12tagegeschenke.de/

I suspect the offerings will be region specific and that we may get an app or two as a gift as well. If anyone has any more information on which countries are participating and if the same songs are being offered, let us know in the comments.

    This app is not available in the USA.. Pretty gay if u ask me.

      That was mentioned in the post. Also, even though I'm in the US and wouldn't mind partaking, it's very common for countries outside the US to get skipped on a number of App Store and iTunes goodies, so I certainly wouldn't begrudge them this one :)

    It's an Olive Grove Facing the Sea by Snow Patrol in the UK – and just so you know – just before Christmas Trivial Pursuit was changed to Free with the 12 days of Christmas promo mentioned in the description – so I'm guessing that'll be the freebie for one of the days too
