There’s an option in iTunes called “Complete My Album” that could potentially save you lots of money. This very handy, yet often overlooked, feature can be used to purchase the remaining tracks in an album rather than having to buy the complete collection again at a higher overall cost.
As well as saving time on manually cherry-picking tracks in order to complete your chosen album, the price is reduced to reflect how many songs are remaining. Compared to purchasing the whole album at normal retail price, this option usually works out to be much cheaper.
Keep in mind, however, that not all albums are offered in this way. You may also find that this method is not always as cost-effective as purchasing individual songs to complete an album. So, it’s still best to compare both methods to get the best deal.
