Get amazing music, games, movies, and apps for only ten cents each on Windows 10
Windows 10 is arguably a success. True, not everyone loves it, but many -- according to Microsoft -- have downloaded it. A huge benefit of having large adoption of the latest version of Microsoft's operating system, is that more people have access to the Windows Store. As a result, more and more quality apps, games, and other content should be made available in it.
To celebrate Windows 10, Microsoft is doing something incredible for its fans. Over the next ten days, the company will be selling music, games, movies, and apps for ten cents each. Yes, for a single dime, you can score some awesome stuff. Heck, you can't get much for such a little amount, nowadays.
"It’s been an incredible year, with over 110 million devices already running Windows 10 and millions of people enjoying innovations like Cortana, Microsoft Edge, Xbox and more. With the recent availability of the November update, Windows 10 is better than ever -- faster, more compatible, and with hundreds of new innovations. If you haven’t taken advantage of our free upgrade offer to Windows 10, now is a great time", says Microsoft.
The Windows-maker further says, "for the millions of fans who have upgraded to Windows 10, we'd like to celebrate with you -- just in time for the long Thanksgiving week-end in the U.S. Starting today, we're going to offer never-before-seen deals on the Windows Store in Windows 10 devices. For the next 10 days, you can enjoy over 1,000 of the latest Hollywood movies, blockbuster music, must-have apps, and addictive games -- for only 10 cents each. Visit each day to load up on great entertainment to enjoy over the holiday and beyond, and we’ll also have some special surprises for you too".
In order to take advantage of these deals, or even explore them, you must be on Windows 10. I tried checking it out on Ubuntu, so I could see what I wanted to buy later on my Windows 10 machine, but was given the above error message. Oh well. Based on the wording, it looks like users of Windows 8.x could be out of luck too.
