Chrome extension ‘BrokeTunes’ = free songs on iTunes & Amazon
by Vaelek on Feb.24, 2010, under Applications, Reviews
I haven’t gotten a single song from iTunes, ever, but a lot of you have. Apparently, both iTunes and Amazon release free singles and sometimes complete albums on a daily basis. I installed it for this write-up, and of the currently 10 songs available, spanning 3 days worth, I have not heard of a single one of the artists. I’m not sure if it’s because of the fact that next to nothing I listen to would ever appear on any Top 40 list, or if these are just totally obscure and unheard of artists. Either way, if you find something you like here, then this post has served its purpose.
In order to install this you will need to be running the 4.x version of Chrome, and visit the extension page at http://www.chromeextensions.org/music-videos-photos/broketunes/

Vaelek, thanks for the post! I agree – the only artist I’ve recognized so far is Yeasayer, and I’ve honestly not really been impressed with most of the other free songs I listened to. I’m hoping to find more sources of free MP3s, and be able to balance new music discovery with more established performers.
Thanks again, and please let me know if you have any ideas!
