Catching up on the Starbucks freebies:

LAST week's was FlightTracker Pro (reg. $9.99!) that has real-time flight info (and some pretty amazing reviews).
This week's is the game Hundreds...reg $4.99. I'll be downloading that one and trying it out later today.
Last week's freebie on the Starbucks App was a funny time-waster called Whirly Word, a "create a word" puzzle.

 

[Mike Frezon]

With two bonus tracks, just for Mike Frezon! Just $6.99 this week.

Amazon.com: That's It (Amazon Version): Preservation Hall Jazz Band: MP3 Downloads

The thing is, I have picked up the last couple Preservation Hall CDs, too! I liked what they did with their last release. They put out a "standard" CD and a "deluxe" CD (with some extra tracks...but it was available anywhere. I might order the Amazon CD (also has the two exclusive tracks) once I've had a chance to sample the tracks. (I do hate to support this nonsense, but...)

Mumford and Sons did that with their release of Babel, too. But every time I look in a store, it seems as if there are two or three or four different versions of Babel available!

I may have to pick up that Preservation Hall Jazz Band album. I'd like to have it on CD, but will probably stick with the MP3.

Not a HUGE sale, but it's still on sale:
Amazon.com: The Civil Wars [+digital booklet]: The Civil Wars: MP3 Downloads

 

[Citizen87645]

My public library subscribes to Freegal, so I can actually get The Civil Wars for 'free' (albeit only incrementally because of the weekly download limit).

The company doesn't have much of a web presence, but here's an interesting criticism of the service: http://librarianinblack.net/librarianinblack/2011/04/just-say-no-to-freegal.html

I see her points, but as a user I've been fine with the limitation.

 

[EricSchulz]

The freebie on the Starbucks iPhone app this week is "Dust To Dust" from the new Civil Wars CD. I'll post the Pick of the Week tomorrow, as I spent the day at the WI State Fair.
