i think the complete my album feature is awesome too, however i wish they would make itunes notify you when an album you have has tracks added, like a little star on the tracks when you listen to it.

Yeah — I probably could have gotten it cheaper through amazon, but there is something to be said for immediate gratification (and iTunes gift cards, of which I currently have about $90 on account!).

One subtlety that I don’t think I have seen written up — if you buy some random track that is on both an album and a EP, you can “Complete My Album” for both the album and the EP!

I was sceptical as well when I first saw it. However, that quickly changed once I realised that there was a Hybrid Single EP release in which I didn’t download all the tracks.

P.S. I found it cheaper to buy Wider Angle at Distinctive Records website as 192 Kbit MP3 files than from iTunes (Saving me £7.99 / $15.72). I dunno if this was due to Inflated UK prices or something else.

Yeah. Saw that. That is a bit annoying. I wonder why. Maybe as an out? Maybe because the record companies insisted on it?

Bill,

Something I just noticed - not sure if you caught it - but the option to complete an album purchase has an expiration date for each of your albums.

Eligible songs include songs you’ve “won” through the various Pepsi “contents”. So there’s a $0.99 discount applied for each of those songs you got for free..

They also now seem to prevent you from purchasing the same song twice.
