Some of you have told us that you would be interested in a Starbucks application available for the iPhone. We just launched a music application, called Music for the Holidays. Search for Starbucks in iTunes, and you should see the icon in the applications section. This application streams Starbucks music - some tracks are exclusive and only available through this application or our past CDs! Also, if connected to Wi-Fi you have the ability to purchase the track by selecting the ‘Buy’ button.

Now Playing - three of our popular holiday compilation albums are available for your listening pleasure. Download this free application today at the iTunes store and enjoy songs from our 2008 Winter Wonderland, 2007 Stockings by the Fire and 2006 Santa Baby compilations. You’ll hear songs like “Sleigh Ride”, by Ella Fitzgerald, “Caroling, Caroling” by Nat King Cole, “Winter Wonderland” by Diana Krall, and lots more.

Happy holidays!

I hope this is just the start for Starbucks and iPhone applications...I think the marriage of the two could be great!

Thanks for the wifi related improvements! However, I find it hard to access the internet and access such features while I wait for my morning americano to be made.

I would like to be able to log in to the wifi, enter the track of the week, and even listen to streaming audio. But, I can't because by the time I've re-entered my starbucks card number and pin, then entered the redeem code on iTunes, my coffee is getting cold.

A native iPhone app that stores login information such as my starbucks card number and pin would let me access the internet with the click of a button without sacrificing security. That way I could actually participate in the programs you put together for us techy types.
