The company that I have used, and the one with the best prices I have found for "unlimited" access is http://www.superuser.net They will host and register your domain name for free as long as you are with them and if you choose the setup with unlimited access then you don't have to worry about getting hit with thousands of dollars worth of bills.  In short most hosting sites give you a preset limit on visitors megs of downloads and then if you go over charge you accordingly.  This can get horribly expensive.  These folks start at around 12 bucks a month for 2 gigs of storage space and have unlimited downloads so no matter how many folks go to your site you won't pay a bit more.  They also have anonymous FTP you can setup which will allow your viewers a much faster download than regular HTML and can be done with simple click off your webpage.  I started a website for a non-profit civic organization in California awhile back and set them up to be hosted there.  Works excellent.  Also they have a checkout and catalog system already installed where you can sell and categorize your wares if you want to sell any of your stuff and take credit cards, etc.  If anybody knows of a site with a better deal please post it and let me know as well.  :-)

1. If it is copyrighted, it won't be free.\n2. The military bands will let you download free concert music (classical).\n3. www.allofmp3.com sells music by the megabyte, and it costs usually 5-15 cents for an average song, depending on the quality you want.  The downside is you have to pay ahead in $10 increments, but I don't mind that, because I spend it.  The upside is that you can hear samples without even signing up, so there is no tricks here--nothing hidden.  The choices are good.  The downloads are mp3, so you don't need a special player to burn them on CD or listen to them.\n4. I heard Yahoo Music has unlimited downloads for five bucks a month, but I don't know the catch of if there is a catch.

This is a copy of an answer I gave earlier:\n" Legal and FREE Stuff:\nhttp://music.download.com/\nhttp://www.garageband.com/\nhttp://www.purevolume.com/\n\nThese artists may not have air-time (and yes you do have to look for the good ones), but it is worth it if you are EXTREEMLY into music, plus it is an easy/cheap way to hear music you may have had no idea existed. "\n\n******\nout of those, purevolume is probably the best, alot of "big name" artists put samples of their music there...\n\nalso, to respond to others answers... sharing music on limewire is illegal (not that I care, or disaprove of it), and good luck finding ANYTHING worth listening to on myspace.\n\nAlso, just try going to the music artists website, some of them have samples there, or a link to where they have put some samples (like on purevolume), a few even have some songs you can only get on thier web site\n\nHere's a tip, if you are looking for a band/artists website, but keep getting totaly unrelated crap using a search engine, try typing the word "band", or "music" at the end of your search...\n\nGood Luck!...\nand if you like a certain kind of music, list it, and I may be able to recomend some bands you might like.

I have been using Limewire for quite sometime and never had any problems but after a download I always check for virus on the file SHARE with my own anti-virus software. If you want something really safe go to (www.mp3searh.ru) you can download full cd´s for $1.18 or less and virus free check it out let me know if you do OK?

http://mp3search.ru is pretty good. Most songs are 10 cents, and you get a 10% discount for buying a whole album. There are lots of out of print albums, maxi singles and bootlegs. Money IS NOT handled by the site (it is handled by a Dutch firm), and I have never had one problem with them at all.\n\nEXAMPLE: The site you listed is selling "Prince: 3121" for $1.56 ... http://mp3search.ru is selling it for $1.08.\n\nEDIT: DO NOT go to http://www.mp3000.net/ as listed in the post above mine. It is full of pop-ups for porn and spyware. TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK!!

As far as stations buying their music.. If the station is in a higher ranking market the record labels will provide the music for free.  They are happy to get the exposure. Every station that plays music is required to pay a flat licensing fee to ASCAP/BMI (they are the companies that pay the artists "royalties" each time their song airs.)  Some smaller stations sometimes need to actually go out and purchase their music, stations can also subscribe to music services that will provide a basic music library, along with weekly updates.  They will not actually charge the stations for this service, they will do a "barter" service with the stations to place comercials on the stations in leu of chash payments.  I hope I am not confusing you more!  As far as CD's go, a vast number of stations don't even use them anymore.  A lot of stations use a "hard drive" music delevery doing away with all of the clutter of cd's.  Most stations are computer operated these days, a lot of the stations dont even have "live talent" in the studio anymore.  They accomplish this by a process of "Voicetracking".  The DJ does not even have to be in the same city as the station he or she is on.  Talent can e-deliver their voice-tracks to basically anywhere Via a computer.  I hope this helps you out a bit.... If it leaves you with more questions... feel free to e-mail me.  I would be happy to help out.

The sale of CDs online is very competitive, with many companies able to undercut high street prices considerably. It will also be a very tough market to promote yourself in, because many of the big names are very well established.\n\nIn terms of the website domain name, you either need to go for someothing descriptive (eg DirectCD.com) or unusual and memorable (eg yahoo.com)\n\nIn terms of promotion, you need to look at what you are planning on doing and seeing how that compares to your competitors. Why should someone buy from you and not them? Once you have estalished this angle you can then think about promoting yourself using this - for example "The cheapest CDs on the web" or "Specialist Suppliers of 80's Hard Rock Cds" etc.\n\nGiven the nature of your competition, you will probably have to be prepared to undertake extensive marketing either across the general media or specialist publications if you are planning on having a specialist angle.

ive heard you you get caught burning music from a cd off lime wire or any other site like that they could come take the stuff you own \nyep and be charged thousands of dollars per file according to the law. On copyrighted stuff that is.\nIt becomes illegal once you are caught.\nIt's not against the law to burn stolen music to a CD. It is against the law to possess, distribute or conspire to distribute stolen works.

answer before me is true, partially, but there is a grey area. russian and other overseas site like mp3music.__ are charging based on the BANDWIDTH of your downloads. This means that with low resolution mp3s, you can have an entire album for, about $1. So, even though you are paying, it is not authorized, which to me is far worse than giving it away for free. \n\nThere is still no free lunch and if you want a legal download you have to stick to the biggies, like iTunes, Rhapsody, Napster, etc.\n\nthanks for caring

I'm not sure about finding another copy of the CD, but I did find a little bit about the website you went to by using the online tool Whois.sc, and the link to the page at that site that offers detailed information about stompshow.com is http://www.whois.sc/stompshow.com\nStompshow.com is not a secure site (i.e. it's probably not a good idea to put credit card information through their web site), the IP address is in England, but the domain is registered to an address in Los Angeles -- very odd (to me at least).\n\nPerhaps you could try finding the CD at a library?\n\nGood luck!

Limewire is program you download. Yes it is 100% free. Other choices are Bearshare or Kazaa. If it's asking for you Credit Card info, you are not at the correct place. Those companies have "Plus" services that you can pay for too, but that's not what you want. You probably clicked the wrong spot.

honestly for easy to use P2P, Soulseek is the best. No IP address logging, no personal info divulged to sign on, all servers are off US soil, and people there take pride in thier collections, usually having full albums available to download at once into its own folder, so you begin building a music collection already sorted into albums. No spyware, no ads. No joke.\n\nhttp://www.slsknet.org\n\n**EDIT - Limewire/Bearshare and any other system on the Gnutella or Kazaa netorks are filled with bogus files, viruses, and crap you don't want. I'm not hear to trash Gnutella client P2P programs. I'd just encourage *anybody* who uses P2P systems to try soulseek.\n\nIts especially great for finding pre-leaked albums, independent music, obscure bands, and UK/English music. \n\nTip: It takes a while to get accustomed to properly using Soulseek for maximum efficiency and getting established, but I'm telling you, I was on Napster when that came out, I was an Audiogalaxy junkie, and I've tried a *lot* of P2P systems. Soulseek is by far superior to them all, and for this to exist almost under the radar of most folks in the US, this is saying something.\n\nEdit 2*** Whatever their newest Beta version is, avoid it. Use the newest solid release of the application, and pay attention for when that updates. As new non-beta versions come out, you should download install them. It leaves all settings/files/etc alone, and takes just a few seconds. They continuallly improve the program, and must be the most benevolent people ever, seeing as how they have no revenue source other then utterly optimal donations.
