As for music and movies. I'm thinking something like "Digital Media Deals & Freebies" where all deals on music and movies that are in digital format can be posted. Monkey does most of the work so it's his call.

I'd suggest AnemicOak for the job. He posts a good chunk of the music deals and did make the suggestion to split it off into a separate thread.

Is there some way to see some statistics on where the members are from? I'm curious to what extent "most people" applies?

Are you able to download music purchased there? Or is it microsoft app/streaming only?

I'd test it with this album, but can't get it to add to my account at the moment.

Yes you get 320 kbps MP3's.

I had problems buying it through the store app on Windows 10 (which 'helpfully' auto launched when I went to the website), but was able to do it through the website itself just fine.

Turns out it was a EULA issue. I was never prompted to agree to the new one and could not get the album without doing so....

Found a link that forced the Groove website to load and ask me to agree to the new terms and was able to get the album. It then downloaded automatically when I opened up the Music app.

We have a new thread for music and videos. AnemicOak will be in charge of the thread. So, from here on out, post those deals in the new thread. Thanks


Media Deals (non-eBook) 2015

Quote:
In this thread we point out free and bargain non-eBook media deals (music, movies, streaming, etc.).

Be aware that sometimes freebies last only days (sometimes hours) so grab them quickly.

Now that we have a dedicated thread for media deals (music, movies, streaming, apps, coins, etc) -- Media Deals (non-eBook) 2015 -- please post all deals for this content only in that thread. Do not post them in the Earn FREE Amazon Coins -or- Black Friday -or- Tablets & eReaders threads.

Thank You

*** Thread Closed ***

I'm going with the format I used last year - closing this thread and posting these deals in the Black Friday 2015 thread until the end of the year. On 01 Jan 2016, I'll close the Black Friday thread and restart a new version of this thread.

Remember, we now have a Media Deals thread so don't post any media deals in the Black Friday thread; only post hardware deals.

Thanks
.
