Ok, so you want to download music, but you don't know where to start. I
hear this all the time from friends and family, so I wrote a little report that
explains it all (it's not that difficult).
First you need to become aware of the tools you'll need, then you'll need to figure out how to use these tools, then you have to make sure you are using them properly so you don't get in trouble with the record labels.
It IS 100% legal
It is all possible through file sharing programs (or "P2P" programs,
which means Peer-To-Peer). File sharing is an amazing and free way to download all the music you could ever ask for. And there are many file sharing programs out there, some good, some bad. They have names like:
My favorite and the one I personally recommend is Kazaa (who knows how you pronounce the
thing...who cares). If you setup Kazaa properly you will LOVE using it daily to get your mp3 files (mp3 files are just songs you click on to play on your computer). When done right, you don’t ever have to worry about spyware crap, legal confusion, and malicious programs.
As I
said, I put together a free report for you to download that walks you through
it (and no, I don't want your email address for the report). Read this pdf report and you'll be downloading music in no time.
Right click it and select "Save Target As" to download it to your
computer.
P.P.S. I
say downloading is free, "sort of", only because you need to spend
either a great deal of time and aggravation getting setup and learning how it
all works, or you need to fork over $30 or so, one time (not monthly like the
other ones, and they don't charge per song either) for an MP3 download service. They will hold your hand
through the whole thing. It's well worth it for the peace of mind, and you can
get as many songs as you want
After the $30, it really is free music. Gotta
love it :-)
