Pepsi's 100 Million Free Songs iTunes Promotion Goes Bad

So after promising to give consumers who purchase Pepsi with coded bottle caps free downloads, it turns out the ink under the bottle cap is not resistant to the mysterious ingredients in the soft drink. Consumers have complained that they cannot read the codes under the caps because they have become blurred.

Pepsi is offering to email you a code that can be read but not until consumers submit via this website their name, address, city, state, zip code, phone number, email address and date of birth. That's one hell of a way to build a database. Did Pepsi do this on purpose?

America Idol Stars Rumored to Perform in Next Year' Super Bowl Halftime Show

With MTV taking the hit for the halftime show debacle, it's rumored that the American Idol winners and contestants will serve as halftime entertainment during next year's Super Bowl. It makes sense as FOX is airing the game next year and unless Kelly Clarkson decides to bare her ass in a thong, it should be a safe, G rated show. Of course following that show, which will be compared to the conservative "Up With People" years, upstart UPN, the only network left the NFL can turn to, will do it's own thing the following year and have Maxim magazine produce a thong-a-thon. It will make Janet's boob look like a Disney character.
