iPod Crazy

on: Jan/14/05 and its been viewed 997 times

I’ve seen quite a few bloggers blegging for signups for this free iPod giveaway. Cool, fun idea — if this household didn’t already have three of them. But hey - if ya don’t have one . . . you should give it a try. So far, I’ve read of about 5 bloggers who have actually gotten a free one.

    There’s been so much hype surrounded the free ipod craze, I’ve seen enough proof,wired featured an article about,and other sources, even live interviews with the owners of the freeipods site.

    It’s all a matter of actually getting someone to get roped into the “free trials” of all their affiliates. It’s definitely worth checking out though.

    I don’t get it though. Even if you run over the free trial and forget to cancel, you can still call up your credit card agency and tell them to stop the payment and refund. I know that Visa and Mastercard does. Of course you must be an outstanding customer like me ;)

    Woohoo! *LOL* Just today they finally approved my blockbuster thing and I canceled it. I don’t need another charge on my card, and we rent at movie gallery. *LOL* But, I’ve got 15 referrals. I don’t know if they have done what they need to or not, I’m hoping 5 of them have and it’ll start popping on my status page soon. *LOL*

    I’m a runner and would never want an iPod - way too big. I use a much smaller mp3 player that also has FM stereo - size of a small pack of gum. Don’t waste your $$ on this oversized box!

    JMHO

    I would love to have one too, but I guess shipping one to europe is not done.

    It’s a nice gift to someone…

    I run too, and have a tiny little MP3 player that fits perfectly in my (inside) shorts pocket. I can’t understand why iTunes does so well either - it’s not even an open file format …

    It does well because iTunes has a wide selection, is cheap, and most people who use it already have an iPod anyway. It isn’t rocket science.

    They now have free photo ipods It is really not a bad deal one of the offers only costs $1 and they send you free walkie talkies, just remeber to cancel with in a month. And you can even pay your friends to sign up and doo that offer $6 is not bad for an Ipod.

    What type of offers are they and how many referals do you have to send? Does anybody else have to accept?
