Great free music site

[mountain_rage]

I just came across this very well structured site for free music thought I would share it. Also since not everyone is familiar with the free online music scene I will include some of those bellow as well. These sites generally host less known artist and is great for finding out about bands that you would have never heard of otherwise.

Site I just found:
www.muzic.com

2 others popular sites
http://music.download.com/
www.Garageband.com

This is by far not a full list and there are actually allot of other sites that offer free music downloads from a huge list of artist. Feel free to add your own favorites to this list.

I thought it may be somewhat relevant to post this too

http://www.pandora.com

You create a free account, then create individual stations based on an artist or song. The program then find music similar to what you like and let's you listen to the songs like a radio. For me, I then take those songs and find them on torrent sites.

Great site Pandora is

[mountain_rage]

Ya I currently use Pandora quite often, other good alternatives to that style of online radio are yahoo's Launchcast and Last.fm

http://music.yahoo.com/
http://www.last.fm/

I don't use direct music sites because they have millions of ads and pop-ups i use the eMule client

I dig pandora.

LastFM was out in left field with its associated selections, and the base of what is available is smaller than pandora.

Aaaaaaaaaand... if you do some looking, you can actually rip the music from pandora.

:p

Great heads up, I just got it working. Its definitely not for beginners but I think thats a good thing, if it were too easy then they would shut down the hole again. If your determined just look up "pandora jar" on Google their's allot of resources.

For those wondering it rips at 128kbps bitrate.

Edit: Not to confuse those reading in the future I had wrote 128kbs

Thanks for pointing out my Freudian slip E.C.

[Excrement_Cranium]

128kbs FTW!

56k forever!

Pandora is definitely awesome. With its suggestions, i have downloaded...must be 30gb of music from torrent sites.

Some genres/artists don't get you the results you'd like, but then again, some artists like Jack Johnson give some great new artists.

I feel so stupid... I can not for the life of me understand how to use last.fm... It's very annoying... maybe someone can explain it for me... Oh and there was this pandora competitor thing that was mentioned on g4 one day... But I can't remember what it was called...

no need to download the last.fm client or winamp plugin
just go here and put in an artist you like and sit back and enjoy
http://www.last.fm/listen/

or play our favored artists

[serrebi101]

most likely the one your thinking of from g4's AOTS webtools segment is
http://www.slacker.com/
They also reviewed mercora way back in the day on tss I believe
http://www.mercora.com
which is similar I guess.

[quastl]

pandora never really worked for me...
i still prefer last.fm

[frankie97]
