How to Pay Less For On-line Music Downloads

Almost everyone used to purchase CDs with tracks in disc shops. But at the present time it happens rarely. Nowadays it is typical for music fans to download brand new tunes from the Web to their MP3 players. Still, before you were aware that CDs with tunes you had obtained were licensed and you were not breaking any copyright laws.

At the present time it is crucial to be aware of music copyright rules and regulations in order not to be sued by a recording company for violation of copyright. Well, how to purchase the best tunes at a reasonable price & not to be taken to court? Firstly, stop browsing at any music download website that promises you loads of music absolutely free. Certainly, from time to time young gifted but not yet famous singers or bands offer their tunes free at their sites. But if you have been granted free access to tracks of music celebs, run away from there as quickly as possible! Does this mean that you have to download expensive songs from now on & save on other things that you have been enjoying to the fullest before? No way!

The world of on-line licensed music download sites offers you a great range of membership and purchasing options. Here's some introduction into pricing that might be useful to you. First, some online music download sites have traditional fees for downloads. No membership commission is included, and you are allowed to view short clips of tracks before buying the one you truly like. The charges commonly range from $0.99 up to $1.29 per song.

If this means of purchasing music online does not appeal to you, there are sites that offer you a paid membership along with reduced fees (commonly about $0.67) for downloading tunes.

And then there is also a monthly subscription alternative, which means that you can download a definite number of songs per month. They also offer a client a free trial period to get acquainted with the music they have available. More than that, they will let you download some tracks (APPROXIMATELY 10 - 25 tracks) free within this period. If you do not take the membership offered after the so-called trial period, all the tracks you have downloaded from a site will be for ever yours.
