Music Downloads

Post by JohnMac » Fri Mar 31, 2017 4:41 pm

As this site is the Oracle I need a bit of updating please as 'things' have changed since I last needed to do this.

Can anyone tell me if I can download Music for free and if so, from where?

I just want to put some stuff onto a flash drive for my DIL as a one off for her car and I have no need to subscribe for long term use. Obviously we are talking about common decency here and not ripping off Artists etc.

Any help/advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Edit
Just to say I know I can use Google but am looking for sites people on here may use that don't bombard you with Spam etc ;)

As longside said.
You can lift some good remixes from there too, depending on what you're into.

I've been using post 2 for a few years. Onto USB and away you go.

If you have a music editor(audacity) you can tidy up the intros and outros and make it professional.

Forgive me if I am wrong, but if you rip an album from youtube it is not divided into individual tracks
and searching/skipping tracks is not possible. It will be one continuous track.

If you are so minded, you can subdivide it using such free editing software as audacity.

Of course, if you rip single tracks/singles then that is not a problem.

Happy hunting.

"No" is the answer to your question. I'm not sure how it could be otherwise.

You could try sites like MP2FIESTA or MP3VA. Slightly cheaper downloads. :-/
