iTunes and McDonald's?







iTunes and McDonald's?

iTunes and McDonald's? 11/06/2003 08:47 AM

The New York Post is reporting that Apple and McDonald's are close to announcing a promotional partnership, with McDonald's offering up to one billion free downloads from the iTunes Music Store. Like a similar deal announced with Pepsi last month, McDonald's will pay Apple the full 99 cents for each song downloaded. This, given that some will not redeem their prizes, puts the value of the deal in the hundreds of millions. The Pepsi deal, which offers 100 million free iTMS downloads, begins February 1, during the superbowl. The McDonald's promotion, still unofficial, has no current start date.

McDonald's and iTunes


McDonald's and iTunes 11/06/2003 09:59 AM
McDonalds plans to give away up to one billion iTunes Music Store songs to its customers. Like Pepsi, McDonald's will pay Apple 99 centers per song downloaded as a result of the giveaway. Because not all customers will take advantage of the offer, it is likely that the campaign will generate hundreds of millions of dollars of revenue for the iTunes Music Store. Apple and McDonald's were not available for comment. [Discussion]

Despite an article in the New York Post that Apple and McDonald's were teaming up to offer one billion iTunes song downloads to McDonald's customers, a statement issued by the fast-food giant denies any such agreement exists. "There are no agreements to announce, so anything else is pure speculation." Were the story true, the promotion could end up costing McDonald's up to $990 million for online music downloads, a figure higher than the company's entire 2002 advertising...

The mystery surrounding a possible McDonald's - iTunes Music Store deal continues to deepen. The statement released yesterday by McDonald's stating that "there are no agreements to announce, so anything else is pure speculation," is the type of statement corporations make when they are in negotiations and don't want to to fuel the rumor mill. Since the reported number of one billion songs does seem astonishingly high, it is possible that the fast-food giant and Apple are...

BT officially announced that it will build hotspots in over 500 McDonald's restaurants in Britain: BT will pay for the install and both companies will promote it and share revenues. BT expects to have 4,000 hot spots by this summer and said it will continue to make roaming agreements with other hot spot operators around the globe. This story offers slightly different details, including some more information on what's happening with McDonald's hot spots in the U.S. A recent survey of McDonald's hot spots in the U.S. showed that customers are predominantly male, many of whom said they would not have visited McDonald's if not for the Wi-Fi. So much for the campaign to encourage people to eat healthier....

McDonald's Trying DVD Rentals... Again?


McDonald's Trying DVD Rentals... Again? 05/24/2004 05:37 PM
A year and a half ago we noted that McDonald's had decided to run a trial program in the Washington DC area, where they offered DVD rentals out of a large vending machine at their stores. There wasn't much news about the program, and it seemed safe to assume it wasn't going anywhere. However, today, McDonald's is announcing what sounds like an identical DVD rental program in Denver - without mentioning at all that they've already tried this. It's a bit odd that they would roll out a second "test" program so much later, and not even admit they had done an earlier test of an identical system.
