Apple has been investing a lot of time and money in promoting it’s brand internationally--especially in Japan. Again, Apple is offering another give away in Japan for...nothing. Just out of the kindness of Apple’s hearts. It probably has nothing to do with the fact that Macs are selling faster than PCs in Japan. Anyway, iTunes Japan is giving away 10 prizes of 100 iTunes songs only on the Japanese iTunes Store. They will choose 10 entrants from now until January 8th, that will be given 100 free iTunes songs, an incredible value 19,000¥, or about $100.

All you have to do to enter is fill out the online registration form. Now the problem with giveaways like this, is that there are only 10 winners in a country of 127,000,000 residents. In other words, you have the same chance of winning as getting struck by lightning right now. Still reading this? No lightning? Well, I guess you would have lost the contest.

We live in an Apple world. With iPods, iPhones, and Macs increasing in popularity every day, so does Apple’s favorite H.264 video codec. Sure H.264 looks really good, even at a small file size. But H.264 is not the only thing out there. A lot of video discovered on the Internet is in the popular DivX codec. And in an effort to promote their product, DivX is giving away their player and convertor, which normally retails for $19.99, for free for a limited time. Even if you aren’t a DivX fan, it’s always good to be able to play DivX files that you get online, and now, you will even be able to create your own files. I don’t know if this move will save DivX, but anything free is good for me.
