Coca-Cola and Apple iTunes giving away choons, iPods and concert tickets this Summer
Anti-capitalist? Better look away now, as two of your most-loathed corporations are teaming up together in the marriage of the decade. Well, until Microsoft buys Yahoo, anyway.
Coca-Cola, they of teeth-rotting prowess, are collaborating with iTunes to bulk up your iPod playlist and give away songs in over 2 billion promotional packs of Coca-Cola, Coke Zero and Diet Coke. Not got an iPod?…
