iTunes Previews

Post by ric »

Is it just me, or did they just change from 30 second previews to 1 minute and 30 second previews? :shock:

What could be the cause of this change? :-k

no, they did. Which is pretty cool in my opinion. I don't if that's for every song, but that's how it's been for all the songs I've bought lately, so you never know.

Ya, Apple has been trying to do this for over a year, and they finally got the rights from the music companies to do so. I like having long previews!

Whoah, really? :shock: Yay, no more trying to figure out which of the versions of the songs that have been slightly remixed that I like. \:D/

Oh cool! I didn't notice this! In some cases you end up with free music when the song is short. (see:Five Iron Frenzy: Chseeses")

Maybe you have to be logged in to get 1:30 previews.... :-k

It's down at the very bottom of the home page in the 'Free on iTunes' section.

Yes, and for some songs that are 1 minute, 12 seconds long, I can listen to the whole song! \:D/

Toby's studio is American. It does make sense, even if it is annoying. :shrugs:
