For many people, the idea of a car trip without music is unthinkable. From
compact disks to MP3 players to satellite radio, travelers always want to
bring along the perfect soundtrack for their road trip. Now eMusic, the
world�s largest digital retailer of independent music, is teaming up with
Avis to offer free music with every car rental.

Avis renters can choose from eMusic�s vast catalogue of more than three
million music tracks and will receive five free tracks for every rental up
to four days in length, and ten tracks for rentals more than five days in
length. Avis will also offer renters who complete a reservation the eMusic
free �Daily Download.�
To help them get the most out of their travel, eMusic and Avis will
provide renters with exclusive playlists developed by dedicated �eMusicologists
themed for holiday weekends, specific destinations and more. Recent playlists have included �Country Roads,� featuring Taylor Swift and Patsy
Cline, �American Roots,� including jazz and blues masters such as John
Coltrane and John Lee Hooker, and a variety of Christmas holiday playlists.
Avis customers can also sign up for an eMusic free trial and use the service
to discover more great music and audiobooks for their next business or
leisure trip, and because eMusic provides all tracks in the universally
compatible MP3 format, they can easily transfer those tracks to any digital
music device or burn to CD for use in their car, home or portable music
player.
eMusic's artists include indie rockers such as Arcade Fire and Spoon,
legendary performers Johnny Cash and Creedence Clearwater Revival and
seminal jazz masters such as Bill Evans, John Coltrane and Miles Davis.
eMusic's long-standing devotion to authentic sounds and adult customers led
Avis to partner with the company as its exclusive music partner.
We're always looking for ways to enhance the rental experience and help
make trips more enjoyable for customers,� said Becky Alseth, senior vice
president of marketing for Avis Budget Group, parent company of Avis. �Music
and driving go hand-in-hand, so eMusic is the perfect way for our customers
to find songs to capture the mood of their trip. It�s just another way that
�We Try Harder� to make each trip memorable.�

soundtrack for their next business or pleasure trip,� said Kip Morgan,
