You can create your own commercial free stations for the music you like and
it's free. http://www.pandora.com/ or www.slacker.com/
You don't need to download anything. Personally I prefer Pandora.

note: have in mind that downloading music may be illegal and some people
have been sued for this for thousands of dollars....


so be aware... and very careful


its better to read about this online so you know.. music is not always free
to download


some is but not all

Hi:
Many thanks for all the responses to my previous thread, ... 'Listening
Songs/music.'

Now, I have one more question to ask, ....

I love to listen to older songs, mostly 70', 80's and even more older ones.
However, I have NO clue to download, much less which site I should visit
to accomplish my task, ... download and listen.

I would be truly appreciated it if any of you on this board would direct me
which site, how to dowload and all other necessary steps for successful, and
FIRST of all, safe to download songs I love to listen.

Thanks,

Ubuntu has a really nice program called StreamTuner with works with
StreamRipper which can be used to record songs off Internet radio and it
converts them into MP3s and has a lot more channels than Shoutcast,
although it has Shoutcast too. The USA is one of the few countries in
the world that prohibit this practice. In Spain, it's completely legal
for personal use.

Hopefully, Obama will restore the civil rights that were stripped away
by the Bush/Cheney nightmare.

RadioTracker is a similarly useful program for the Windows Platform ...

Radiotracker
http://radiotracker.com/en/free_mp3_...ads/index.html

Trial version available via the site.

Streamripper is free. Judging from the instructions on the Streamripper
download page for Windows, it's far easier to install in Ubuntu, just a
couple of clicks, and the interface for Ubuntu is much nicer.
