I own exactly one Taylor Swift song. This isn’t it.

But let me tell you about the song I do own. I don’t even know the name of it without looking it up. You see, I didn’t buy it.

Okay, I paid for it and it was purchased with my iTunes account, but I didn’t buy it.

Okay, here’s what happened. I was at my mother’s house, and my daughter and her family were visiting. It was around Christmas one year.

Her oldest boy liked to play with the Apple TV device and play music videos. Being young (he was three or four at the time) his attention span was usually confined to watching the previews of songs and movies (and for movies, usually movie trailers).

Every so often, though, he’d like to watch an actual movie … or at least more than a minute or two of a movie. Since my movie library is a lot larger than my mother’s, I logged in to my iTunes account on her Apple TV so the grandson could watch Polar Express, How The Grinch Stole Christmas, Rudolph, or some other video.

Well, I didn’t bother to sign out when he was done watching. So, later when he started watching videos again, rather than playing the preview, he (unintentionally or otherwise) selected “Purchase” on the Apple TV for a Taylor Swift song he liked. I found out about this a day or two later when Apple sent me the receipt for the purchase.

Okay, $1.99 for a music video a grandson enjoyed is a small price. But, it did mean I owned a Taylor Swift video. I still one a Taylor Swift video. Just one. And, as I said earlier, this isn’t it.
