Free ipod music.
nagging

I've just got a new ipod and would like to know where best to get some free music for it. I don't own that many albums as I prefer listening to music online via streaming usually but would be cool to have loads on my new sparkly ipod

Many thanks

None that are legal. The cheapest is allofmp3.com. Napster, iTunes etc are expensive and have nasty DRM in them which limits your usage with the song.

Get an iTunes account and each week you'll get a free song. Anything else will have to come from smaller labels or be illegal.

Or...

If your not bothered about listening to bigger signed artists, many unsigned bands provide their material free of charge online, and its legal.

You'll find many sites by searching unsigned bands in google or similar.

Go onto the homepage and it's usually in one of the six boxes about halfway down the page.

Some free tunes here, nothing by bands you've heard of though - http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/freemusic/

A lot of people download anything free from Limewire.

Not me though.

I wouldn't mind trying some music from smaller bands, but none of those websites give you something like the first 30 seconds streamed, is their anywhere you can stream the music first to see what it is like?
