Google Play celebrating first anniversary with special offerings

Exactly one year ago, Google merged its Android Market with a few of its other services to create the Google Play Store.
The Store offers hardware, ebooks, music, videos and of course apps and games.

In order to celebrate the birthday right, Google is offering discounts on books, video rentals and music, with a few apps and games highlighted, as well.

The anniversary part will extend to the rest of the week.

Check the deals here, daily: Google Play Promotion

Yeah most of those apps and music no one will listen to anyways..Now if they offered up free apps on their top paid list or even music, then that might be worth biting on, but alas, Goggle disappoints us yet again...

Either way I agree, most of the stuff they are offering for the birthday celebration I wouldn't want or is already free elsewhere.
