In a couple of weeks, we will be able to have free music from ITMS by drinking Pepsi products. I wonder if people would switch to Pepsi in order to get free music.

I love the test of Coke so much that I will not drink Pepsi in order to get free music. What about you???

I'm already a Pepsi freak, so this is going to work out nice for me. Additionally, my father drinks Pepsi but doesn't use iTunes, so I'm getting him to save his winning caps for me. Heh-heh.

I think the odds are 1 in 3.

It's a 1 in 3 chance of winning.

Pepsi is way too sugary. can't drink a whole bottle without feeling sick.
same with the rest of their products.

I prefer Coke, but Pepsi's been on half price special offer for the last three weeks at my local supermarket... so I've been drinking that.

However, the itunes offer makes no difference as it doesn't apply here

What the nerd community most often fail to realize is that all features aren't equal. A well implemented and well integrated feature in a convenient interface is worth way more than the same feature implemented crappy, or accessed through a annoying interface.

I'm a Coke drinker (I'm from Atlanta, where Coke was born). I will still buy some Sierra Mist to get free music. I believe that the three drinks upon which you can get free music are (or rather, will be):

1) Pepsi
2) Diet Pepsi
3) Sierra Mist

Sierra Mist tastes like Sprite to me, so I can drink it. I can't stand Pepsi or diet Pepsi. If only they'd offer songs on Mountain Dew -- I love that stuff.

Generally I drink:

1) Coke
2) Diet A&W Root Beer
3) Mountain Dew
4) Sunkist Orange
5) Dr Pepper Red Fusion
6) Barq's Root Beer
7) Sprite

I like some others, but these are the ones in our fridge (along with Schwepps Ginger Ale for my wife).

I avoid soda, but when I do drink it, I prefer most Pepsi products to their coke equivalents.

Then again, I download music using alternative methods, that are a lot cheaper, and don't have nearly as many limitations.
