Free iPod Music Download

October 24, 2009 by Steve Jacobs 

Whoever said that there are no free, legal music websites to download music for your iPod probably didn’t do much research. In fact, there are many websites, which offer not just free but legal music for iPods.

But do these websites have good music or just unwanted, boring trash? Well, for sure these sites offer exciting collection of music by popular artists. From Madonna to U2, to Sting or the bubble-gum pop boy bands like Westlife, you will get a range of great independent and major artist releases for download, immediately!

If you have just bought a new iPod or are bored of your old, boring collection of songs, and are on the prowl for more, then you have two options – illegal free downloads or legal free downloads. It is advisable to skip the first option and proceed with the second. Here’s why, in brief of course.

The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) has been filing lawsuits to stop the illegal trading of copyrighted music via the Internet. Besides this, many other websites, non-US music download sites, sell songs for as low as ten cents each. However, this is a dangerous gray area and unsafe! It’s advisable to exercise caution before assuming that the music you purchase from these online mp3 stores is a replacement for the licensed CDs sold in the music stores.

So it’s better to download free music for your iPod without fear of piracy and in accordance with RIAA’s strategy. Some of the websites mentioned here are the best as they offer iPod compatible MP3 songs by record artists and big labels. So read on –

Amazon.com – Free music downloads from a surprising mix of mainstream and independent artists available for your iPod free of cost.

MP34U.com – A nice and clean website that has a well designed interface and neatly sorted music by genre.
