Adding a second account and $25 credit

[zetroc]

So I added my work account to my N7 and it told me about the $25 and it got me thinking... this isn't exactly what Google intends, but I think it technically stays within the rules.

What if I add my work credit card (or personal for that matter) to my work account, get the $25, and then spend it on music, download to my computer the files, then upload them to my personal Play Music account and then I have the songs... it's the only way since apps/books/movies won't be transferable. Thoughts?

The way you get the second 25 dollars is with a second account and a different credit card than the one on your first account.

As for the music - the moment to press the purchase button on google play the songs are added on google music so there is no need for you to go ahead and download them and re upload them at all. If you would like to grab them for you personal collection on your desktop that's ok (you bought the music it is all yours) so go ahead and grab it and enjoy it. I personally prefer when I buy a song for it to stay on the cloud as I just stream it.

Sometimes when the tethering off the phone is wonchy is when I encounter the problem but it is all good I have google music on my phone too

Agreed. I intend to keep it on the cloud, but I want it available via my personal email account and not my work. That's why I'd download a copy then upload it to my own Google Music account. Then I stream from there

I added a credit card, and I didn't get the $25... is it because it's a Google Apps account? So much for that music, eh?
