Finally a good mp3 site

Sybren Dijkstra

We all remember the time when we could download our favourite songs for free on Napster, don't we? Well, since that time is over, I went looking over the internet if I could find any cheap (and, if possible, free) mp3 downloads.

I did come across some sites that offered free music downloads, but when I joined, I realised that the music was free indeed, but I had to pay for something else in order to download the 'free' songs. I thought 'free' meant 'no costs'...

Imagine this, you're in a shop, and the guy at the counter says to you: "First give me $100, then you can grab free products worth $100 in total, for free!" Is that free? I'm not even going to answer that question. My point is, this is how these sites work, and as far as I think, that won't change.

So after I've come across A LOT of mp3 selling sites, I started to realise that downloading music for free (really free, absolutely no costs) in a legal way would be nearly impossible. Excuse me if I'm wrong, I'm just talking about the sites I've seen myself.

Because I didn't want to get in trouble with illegal music downloading, I decided to join the cheapest I could find. And, of course, I want to share the link with you, or else I wouldn't be writing this. I'm talking about mp3musiq.com , I paid $39.95 for the 'Lifetime Acces' package, and I see that the package is discounted to $34.95 now, could've saved me 5 bucks... But with that package I have unlimited music downloads and support. I downloaded a number of songs equal to 3 albums. Normally an album costs me around $20, so times 3 that means $60, and I only paid $39.95, and that was a one-time fee. So I think I'm doing the right thing here.

I just wanted to share this with you, because I've noticed that a lot of people are looking for cheap mp3 downloads. If you find a cheaper site, congratulations, I just didn't see that one.

Greetings, Sybren Dijkstra
