Wow. Apple's iTunes Store now has a Facebook Fan Page. During today's It's only rock and roll, but we like it special music event, Apple announced iTunes 9 and said it allowed users to share via Facebook. Apparently you can share some love for iTunes right back.

And if you do, you can get 20 free songs by indie artists. The process sounds hecka convoluted, but TUAW takes you through it admirably.

Let us know if you become a fan, and get your music!

    I've been a fan of iTunes for a LONG time and have received a few free song deals.. including lollapalooza songs...and indies spotlight hits too...

  2. I just joined as a few last week, but haven't taken advantage of the free songs yet!

    So... no free songs for long time iTunes users in other countries.

    Thanks Apple :)

  4. Andre says:

    Of the subject. But where's the iPhone version of TiPb?

    So you CAN buy friends.... after all?

    Yeah this fan page has been around for quite some time, especially the free song packs like "spring break", "indie", etc. However, I wish all the sharing was done inside iTunes not taking you out of iTunes to facebook.com. You would think with Apples tight FB integration in iPhoto it would be a little more seamless. Maybe we'll see that in the future.

    OH! also, The sharing feature isn't on apps yet. I share a lot of apps with friends on FB and would like to see that come to the app store soon as well.

    This is nearly a year old LOL the site AND bloggers are broken today!

  8. Oboewan says:

    The page is old, the free deal is not.

    And TiPB often disables mobile mode around big events - for some bizarre reason, it DECREASES server load. (They did this around WWDC when they were experiencing heavy traffic)

  9. Ron Jeremy says:

    Ron likes to get the free tunes for kicking it with the hoodrats on set.

  10. iTunes has taken over Facebook and even Twitter. With it’s latest Last.fm integration and reviews shared to social networking profiles. I would like to see iTunes become a social network but I doubt that will materialise!
