The latest buzz on the net is getting free iTunes Music Store codes from Pepsi bottles without having to actually purchase the Pepsi.
“MacMerc.com”:http://www.macmerc.com/news/archives/1270 first reported the “hack” which entails basically tipping over the Pepsi bottle to reveal the code.
bq. “The secret is the angle. I’ve found it to be 25 degrees, but that’s really no use when you’re out in the field. Just tilt it until it seems about that, and look up towards it (hold it above your head). With luck, you should be able to see under the cap.”
Tsk Tsk on Pepsi. At minimum they could have used those little plastic coverings over the code to make it more illegible until you removed the cap and the plastic.
I’m sure Apple isn’t pleased by all this but why should they care? Every song that is redeemed will be paid for by Pepsi regardless of how it’s “won”.
