How to listen to music for free
Online radio
As many people now download mp3s, most of the major radio stations in the world, air their shows on both the air-waves, and the Internet.
The simplest way to listen to music online for free is to go to the website of a popular radio station, and activate online radio streaming.
Download directly from artists
Many artists support the concept of downloading music for free on the Internet. For example, Nine Inch Nails went as far as releasing two albums online for free download.
To find these free downloads, users should do an online search for free legal music websites.
Download from Amazon
In the past, people had to go out, and buy a single if they wanted to sample a song on a particular album.
This is no longer the case, thanks to online file sharing.
Now, Internet users can go to websites, like Amazon.com, and download free mp3s, that have been authorised for free before they pay for download by the artist. This gives users the opportunity to listen to a few songs of a full album.
Mp3.com
Mp3.com has been around for many years. The website boasts the largest collection of free music downloads on the Internet.
Download free independent music
There are numerous file share sites, that allow users to download free legal songs created by independent artists.
These artists place their music online, so that they can gain awareness for their brand.
Finding these songs is simply a matter of doing an online search for legal music by independent artists of a certain genre.
For example, those searching for rock music would place the term "free legal rock music downloads" in the search bar.
Paid music options
Some people will opt to buy music. This is a good option for people, who do not want to spend time for free legal downloads. Instead, they can buy the songs of their choice from vendors, such as iTunes.
