Apple has ended its iTunes free 'Single of the Week' promotion after a run of 11 years, reports Business Insider.

No free songs have appeared on iTunes since the start of 2015 and apparently Apple support has confirmed that the promotion is no longer running.

Bob Foss, a user on Apple's Support Community, said, "I contacted iTunes Support and they told me the decision was made to drop the free Single of the Week. Seems they don't want people browsing the Store anymore. I told them that the free single each week got me to the Store and I usually bought a few songs. Now, there's less reason to go. They've stopped the free single in other countries too."

Apple started giving out a free single of the week back in 2004. Unfortunately, it seems music lovers will no longer have this promotion to look forward to.
