Starbucks has announced (BusinessWire / Earth Times UK) the Pick of the Week program, which offers coffeehouse customers a chance each Tuesday to discover complimentary new music and music videos via a complimentary card (redeemable for 60 days).
"With Pick of the Week, Starbucks will leverage its trusted curatorial voice in music and entertainment through its partnership with iTunes to provide our customers with a world-class digital discovery experience," said Ken Lombard, president, Starbucks Entertainment.
"Pick of the Week provides an incredible way for Starbucks customers to discover great new music and videos for free on the iTunes Store," said the man called Cue. "With the world's largest online catalog of music and video there is truly something for everyone."
The first Pick of the Week, available starting today at participating Starbucks locations, is Counting Crows' new song, Washington Square (iTunes). Pick of the Week featured artists include a great line-up with Carly Simon, Duffy, Counting Crows, Adele, Sia, Hilary McRae and many more coming soon.
