How to Get Free Stuff On iTunes
Part 1 of 3:
Finding Free Music and TV Shows
- Open the Music section of your iTunes library. You can open this by clicking the musical note button in the top-left corner of iTunes 12.
- If you're using an iOS device, open the iTunes Store app.
- Click the "iTunes Store" tab. This will load the iTunes Music Store.
- Click the "Free on iTunes" link in the menu on the right. You may have to scroll down to see it.
- If you are using the iOS iTunes Store app, scroll to the very bottom of the main Store page and tap "Free on iTunes" in the "Music Quick Links" section.
- Browse the selection of free music and TV shows. You can click the "See All" link next to each category to see all the available titles.
- Apple rotates the selection of free content weekly.
- Tap or click the "Get" button to begin downloading the content. Note that you may first have to open the album or TV season to find the free item, as usually only one song from an album or episode from a season is free.
- Sign in with your Apple ID if prompted. If you don't have one, you can tap or click "Create Apple ID" to create one for free without a credit card.
- Wait for your content to download. Once you tap "Get" and sign in with an Apple ID, the item will begin downloading to whatever device you're currently using.
