Finding Free (Legal) MP3 Downloads
“Free downloads are good advertising.”
by Dawn Clement
Music is an extremely profitable industry. It’s really no wonder that the music industry reacted so strongly to digital music when they realized that people were downloading entire albums for free. What the music industry failed to realize back in the Napster days was that the lines of distribution were changing and that they needed to act accordingly.
Today, most musical artists have figured out that releasing an album for free online is great publicity. The way it works is that a band offers a new album (or a single from an upcoming album) as a free download, usually for a limited time, and then follows up with a traditional CD release. In fact, commercial sites frequently offer free downloads right alongside their commercial offerings. Free downloads are good advertising, and a great way to promote new bands. Sites such as MTV, Amazon, and iTunes regularly offer free music downloads. MP3.com has thousands of songs by well-known, current artists available for free, including Vampire Weekend, The Raconteurs and classic artists such as Bob Marley. Their generosity is paying off with both fan loyalty and the almighty dollar.
