Gift Card & Vinyl Discounts
Select Rexall Pharmaplus stores are offering 10% discounts on iTunes Gift Card multipacks of $30 or individual gift cards valued at $50 or $100. This offer ends November 27th, 2014. Consult your local flyer for details.
Participating Target stores are also offering 10% off iTunes gift cards from November 28th, 2014 to November 30th, 2014. But they are also offering 25% Off vinyl records until November 30th, 2014.
Yes, I am also surprised to hear some Target stores have begun to sell vinyl records. And although I suspect their selection will be limited I guess I will need to take a look.

HBO To Offer Stand Alone Streaming
Americans will soon be able to subscribe to HBO without subscribing to cable, satellite or IPTV services according to The Wall Street Journal.
The chief executive of HBO informed Time Warner investors today that this service will be made available next year and I suspect many other networks will follow suit. But Canadians will of course be forced to wait for these services as the CRTC decides the future of television.
I certainly hope HBO will choose to bypass the Canadian oligopoly and offer services directly to individuals over the internet like Netflix.
Spotify Is Up And Running
Spotify is now available to Canadians.
This advertisement supported service enables its members to stream music to their devices, including Android and iOS powered tablets and cell phones.
An advertisement free service is available for $9.99 CAD + tax per month, payable via credit card or Paypal. Gift cards for the service will likely make their way into the major retailers shortly.
