/* updated with 10/28/08, 11/4/08, and 11/13/08 songs */

/* Note tip from snow1angel:
"I did a search in Zune for 'free three'. In the results under Playlists - there was a link to 'Free Three Weekly/Mixtapes' clicking on that brought me to 9 free songs (the ones twm01 has listed for 8/28, 9/2, & 9/9) Hope this makes it easier for people to find the free songs and a way to search for following weeks music." */

The Zune Marketplace (link) offers three free mp3 downloads each week (they also offer other free songs on the site sporadically). I get notified of them via an email. Here are the songs that have been offered to date. Note that some of the songs stop being free after the week is over; others remain free longer. The information below is artist/song/album or artist/album/song.

Enjoy!

I downloaded a few songs via Zune software. All of them are .WMA files and are protected by DRM. Properties of file: DRM: Yes - permanent license (has sync rights, has burn rights).

But the only freebie that I see using the link you provided is for Plastilina Mosh's "Pervert Pop Song," from their new album, All U Need Is Mosh. Even after downloading and installing the player, the player shows only the same single freebie.

I realize that since you actually listed the titles/artists for this week, I can search and find the free download. However, normally I wouldn't know which titles were the three freebies each week. How do we find these 3 weekly freebies? Also, you mentioned that you get notified by email of the freebies each week, but where do I go to sign up for this email notification?

Go to the albums he has posted and it will show 0 dollars charge download and drag and drop into your Zune that you have connected to your PC with your usb cable that came with the Zune (you will see your Zune on bottom left that you have already set up when you purchased it and downloaded the software)

Christina Aguilera's Beautiful on Album/Stripped is free. Aint No Other Man is no longer free.

Johnny Cash Folsom Prison Blues is no longer available for free.
Justin Timberlake Future Sex album Summer Love no longer available for free.
Whitney Houston Greatest Hits I Will Always Love You no longer free.
Chris Brown Exclusive Hold Up no longer free.
Gavin DeGraw In love With a Girl Gavin DeGraw 2008 no longer free.
Beyonce no longer free.

Shakira Hips Dont Lie Oral Fixation is still available for free.

I have gotten some .mp3s, most were .wma files, and the drm varies too.

I don't recall where I signed up for the emails (I assume somewhere on the Zune site)... I couldn't find anywhere that listed the songs... so I put this together to let everyone know.

Go to the search box and find the artist/album, then the song should show free where the price is for other songs.

I did a search in Zune for 'free three'. In the results under Playlists - there was a link to 'Free Three Weekly/Mixtapes' clicking on that brought me to 9 free songs (the ones twm01 has listed for 8/28, 9/2, & 9/9) Hope this makes it easier for people to find the free songs and a way to search for following weeks music.
Thanks o.p.!
