So, how do I find free content in the ITunes store, as I hear it does exist.

Hi Olivia,
I gave instructions yesterday on how to run power searches for ALL
content in the iTunes Store, including iTunes U. I won't repeat the
detailed information, but if you start at the iTunes Home page (which you
can always reach with the Command-Shift-H shortcut) and look for "Power
Search" in either the Item Chooser or Links Chooser menus, you'll be
taken to a search template with text field entries and popup buttons.
This is all accessible so the list of every available search category and
the option fields and check boxes that was included in that post is
probably not needed.
If you run power searches you'll get results in both the iTunes Store
HTML area and text listings in the Songs List. However, there are a lot
of neat options for refining your search in the HTML area that you can
use -- like finding results grouped by the kind of production (podcast,
music video, audiobook, etc.), album groupings, dfferent artists or
series, etc.
The other way you can find content is simply by going to the links to
iTunes U, or podcasts, or movies, etc. (all the other categories listed
in my post of yesterday) from the iTunes home page and browse the pages
for each of those categories. The category page at the iTunes Store will
periodically change to highlight different featured content, or give you
a snapshot of the most populat selections.
Here's the link to yesterday's post about power searching in the iTunes
Store with iTunes 8:

how did you get to Itunes U?
I can interact with the store, but can't figure out how to get to Itunes
U let alone search it.
Any help you can give would be appreciated!

Finally, after attempting to download iTunes 8 via the software update,
I managed to download it from the site--I have the .dmg file for those
who want.
Anyway, I just got it up and running and did a search of iTunes U and
oh, I was so happy! History! All kinds of stuff! I just grabbed a
bunch of free stuff. Very nice! So this means that if I can do that,
naybe come Christmas time, I can actually spend one of those gift
cards, provided I have the code or whatever, and buy some albums for
myself. Oh, I can't wait! But right now, I'll take fuller advantage
of finding just what I am looking for--it's very easy to get around
even if I don't use all the shortcuts. I just have to restrain from
tabbing around in the HTML field like I am used to doing, because that
takes you away form the page. Still though, I like it. Apple ought to
be commended for finaly coming through with a product that at first
gblance, appears to work very well indeed.
