[#2636234]

I don't think this has been done here yet but it's a pretty active topic on various forums.

Mflow are a music download company with a twist. Not going into details on here but basically, to get numbers up, They're selling a whole heap of albums (some current) for £1 if you sign up, then "like" them via Facebook. Also, if you sign up via [url= http://beta.mflow.com/signup?invitecode=7O03PA ]THIS[/url] link, you start with a £1 credit for free (and I get credit too, for those wondering) so the first album's complete free!

Loads more info on MSE - http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.php?t=3150352&page=3 including a seperate link for those wanting to check it out direct.

DD - any albums with an easter egg by the purchase price can be had for £1.
If you click the easter egg, then "like" the album on Facebook, the price changes to £1

Uh oh - just realise a flaw in my plan - anyone who joins via the link above will see my dodgy taste in music 😳

NikNak7890 - do you actually need to download the software though - it just says managing the tracks is "easier" if you do?

VortexRacing - you need to use Facebook to get the £1 price on albums. When you click the link to "Like" a particular album, the price drops to 99p on the site.

I honestly can't see any albums, let alone Easter Eggs. I have signed up from the link above, and it hasn't put £1 in my account..what am I doing wrong?

sc-xc. You need to sign up using the link, then click through the confirmation email you get sent. £1 is then added to your account. And it doesn't seem possible to just get a list of albums available. You need to click the "discover" tab, then search for the albums/artists you're interested in.

The "easter egg" 99p albums do seem to keep changing - some have gone, others have appeared. A good way to check for new ones is to click on the "trending" tab, then on "trending albums" on the list on the left - that gives you a list of the most popular albums at the time.

edit: another way to look for bargains is to search for #Easter, or #Easteregg

cheers for that, plugged the weekend void with a couple of albums (hunting through the easter eggs is a ball-ache and a half though, eh?)

now spotify's putting the squeeze on, i can see this being my go to place for trying out albums prior to buying proper physical versions.

incidentally, should anyone be struggling to waste some money on there, [url= http://beta.mflow.com/#!/album/chinese-man/racing-with-the-sun ]this[/url] is outstanding (albeit a pound cheaper on Play & Amazon)

No problem guys. Certainly seems to be a bargain offer while it lasts. I've probably used it more for streaming tbh - it's good to listen to albums without ads prior to buying them. An alternative to Spotify now they're clamping down a bit.

spasmic gerkin (?!) just listening to your link at the moment - like it so far 🙂 .

Oh, and the Motorhead back catalogue has all just appeared as 99p easter eggs too 🙂
