Coca-Cola Music Site Experiences Technical Difficulties
from the let's-try-that-again,-shall-we? dept
Today was the big day that Coca-Cola was expected to be yet another brand to launch yet another online music download store - but it appears the site wasn't designed particularly well, as it failed as soon as the doors opened. You would think that a company as large as Coca-Cola would do a bit more testing before opening the doors. They also are claiming that they're the "the first consumer branded, legitimate downloadable music site", which Apple might take issue with.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

Just STOP the Commercial
Maybe I am too used to my TIVO, but these commercials they are slipping into the theater are annoying enough, but the Coke one for their music service was just HORRIBLE. And with the crowding of theaters during the December movie rush, it wasn't like you could show up late to miss it and still get a good seat.
