Adele, Ed Sheeran and The Weeknd dominate iTunes' annual best-selling music list. Apple today added a new in the iTunes Store, featuring free downloads of songs and full length TV episodes. The section replaces Apple's 'iTunes Single of the Week', which previously offered free songs from popular and indie music artists. Currently, Apple is offering full-length TV episodes from shows including Fox's Backstrom, Syfy's 12 Monkey's, Disney Channel's KC Undercover, and MTV's Eye Candy. On the music side, Apple is offering downloads from artists such as Purity Ring, Jauz, Asking Alexandria, and Guster. Apple's, and it is likely that the company will offer new content every week as it has done with the iTunes Single of the Week and its App of the Week section. Update: The new section appears to be U.S.-only for the time being. The amount of great artists and dope music I've come across over the years with the Free Singles was an important pastime for me as a youngster from the onset of the iTunes store up through the first few years of college (until I started working at the college radio station and had my pickings of virtually anything and everything, as well as the explosion of the music blog scene). I'll always put the Free Single section as an important portion of my music discovery that led me to a career in music. I'm very glad Apple is continuing this. Even if they don't know it, that little section had an impact on this little musician.
