    free legal sites are
    http://www.we7.com/#/ (just realised you can only listen for free have to pay to down load)
    http://www.spotify.com/en/ (need an invite apparently, not sure how that works)
    this post is probably useless now i actually read about the sites! lol sorry :)

  • you could always join a library which loans out CD's and rip them to mp3 to put on there for free. most free dowload places are illegal.
    It only takes a second to say 'Thanks, you just saved me a few quid!'

    There are plenty all over the internet....but you didn't mention what type of music?
    I know plenty who specialize in a certain type of music, so if you want a finer answer from me, you might need to be specific . :)

    and what kind of groups are the green record? and reading terms and conditions it says the software is free to use, doesn't say waht you download is free and legal.

  • not 'all' free sites are illegal- such scaremongeringm tsk!

    check out your favourite band's own sites / facebook pages-
    often preview tracks or even full albums are offered..

    there may still be a lily allen remix link on twitter - search for 'lilyallenremixd' ?)

    radio / newspaper / magazines sites also occasionally have promotions going on by big bands, or even new ones trying to get noticed.

    Yes not disputing that but most you can't just search and get what you really wanted.

    if you know what songs you are after you could do what i do is go to http://www.google.com and in the search box type in , in this format:

    "artist name - song name.mp3" i.e. "eminem - without me.mp3" *without the ""

    7digital.com often offer free mp3s from emerging artists. Totally legal and worth a look. You might discover someone you like.
