Pepsi's deal with the estate of Michael Jackson starts later this month. It begins with special 16-ounce cans with a dancing Michael that enable fans to scan codes by smartphone to download remixed tracks from the album Bad. Besides the digital music, the beverage giant promises live events and "digital opportunities" to get merchandize tied to the album's 25th anniversary.
