Yes, thats right. Forget Kazaa, stop using limewire, and you should’ve deleted e-donkey a long time ago… The latest free music download solution is here.
While this solution may not be easier than opening limewire and searching for some song, it has other unseen benefits…
Simply put - a little Songza, some Youtube, and your favorite flash downloading program, mixed in with some track-pad grease- gets you just what you’re looking for…. For the flash app, I like Get Tube (for Mac), and for PC, Free YouTube to MP3 Converter looks good (here’s a guide for it).
So, Step 1 - Pick a song. For this example we’ll use Dave Brubeck Quartet’s Take 5 because its sweet and everyone should want that song.
Step 2 - Navigate to Songza.com. Type in “Take 5″ or “Dave Brubeck” or whatever search term you’re looking for.
Step 3 - Play a few of the songs in songza to make sure you’ve chosen the correct one.
Step 4 - When you’ve found the right song, click “Watch Video” in the “Currently Playing” box.
Step 5 - This will take you to the YouTube video providing the soundtrack you’re listening to.
Step 6 - Now that you have the YouTube video address - open your flash downloading program and viola! You can download it as mp3!
With Get Tube its mostly automatic. With other programs you may have to cut/paste the video address (e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDOgYw5-pNs) into the program for it to get the data.
Now you can safely & easily get the exact file you want without worrying about viruses, trojans, spyware, fake files, privacy, or lawsuits.
Is it worth the extra trouble? You decide.
A few final notes — I don’t really think you should delete kazaa, limewire, ed2k, or bit-torrent. They have a host of uses besides music sharing. Also, Songza is sweet. It one-ups Pandora in that you can pick and choose your songs, then add them to a playlist that will follow you anywhere. I mean, Pandora is great when you don’t care what to listen to, but when you need THAT song, head on over to Songza…
