Pepsi to air ‘Bottle Songs’ iTunes ad during Super Bowl
Pepsi today announced details of the four commercials it will be running during this Sunday’s Super Bowl. As previously reported, the company will air an ad for this year’s Pepsi-iTunes promotion, which kicked off on Monday. Pepsi said the iTunes ad is called “Bottle Songs” and features “a number of popular tracks from a series of music genres” and “illustrates how winning a free song from the Pepsi iTunes promotion is as easy as opening a bottle of Pepsi.” It will be shown in 30 and 45-second spots.
As part of the Pepsi-iTunes music giveaway, Pepsi is giving away 200 million free songs from the iTunes Music Store. Those who redeem a free song download will also be automatically entered in a sweepstakes to win one of 1,700 iPod minis.

That ad is a million times better than the one they aired last year, but still not that great compared to other Super Bowl ads of the past.

I agree with Jon! Much better than last year. I thought it was very good. Cought my attention and I understood what it was about. Almost seems to be more of an iTunes ad than a Pepsi ad.

I donno gents, this ad is pretty bad. Why not just have some shadow men dancing with pepsi? although now that I said it, it’ll never happen.
darn it!

tumblingwall, it will never happen because Pepsi makes the ads, not Apple. Pepsi is really the one who mostly benefits from the promotion, as they get the extra sales from customers and then just pay Apple whatever it costs.

this promotion sounds like just a big lose, especial because in places pepsi sells for less than 99 cents.
