This bug is iTunes should have a “Free Downloads” section on other front pages. It was filed on 2006-03-17 at 21:19.


Summary:

iTunes Video Store front pages don’t have a “Free Downloads” section like the Music Store’s does.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Launch iTunes.
  2. If the Music Store source is not already selected, select it.
  3. Click on Movie Trailers, Music Videos, or TV Shows.
  4. Click on the background inside the Music Store view (to the right of the source list).
  5. Hit End.

Expected Results:

You see a “Free Downloads” section in the bottom-left corner.

Actual Results:

You don’t see a “Free Downloads” section in the bottom-left corner.

Regression:

None known.

Notes:

The Video Store (especially the TV Shows section) has had a number of free downloads lately, such as the free pilot and feelies for Conviction and the free “This is SportsCenter” commercials. There is no centralized place on any Video Store front pages where people can easily find these free downloads. One must look at all the values for the rotating poster views at the top of the page, and the non-rotating poster views in the middle of the page (below the first middle row).


And yes, this feature request does go toward making it easier for me to compile the “Free Stuff on iTunes” posts. ;)
