Download Music Legally with Rhapsody

Sites offering free iPod music downloads are appearing all over the internet everyday. But if you were to take a closer look at them, one thing you must find out is whether they are legal music downloads. Everyone likes free stuff including free iPod music downloads. The sad truth is quite a number of these sites are illegal and violate copyright laws by uploading patented or copyright music without permission from the record labels or music companies. There are only a few sites where you truly can get hold of free iPod music downloads.
Recently, there were reports on the TV and newspapers regarding people facing lawsuits filed by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association for America) for uploading copyrighted music for others to download. These people may face fines in the range of thousands. It seems that those who supported these offenders by downloading free iPod music downloads could be implicated. These are the free music sites that cost you absolutely nothing to download. But there are the risks of getting caught of course.
However, there remain ways in which a person can download free or rather almost free iPod music downloads without getting into trouble with the law.
The first thing you should be looking for is sites that have a membership system. For you to be a member of these sites, you have to pay a one-time membership fee, about $40 over to join. After that, you are free to download as much music as you want to your iPod. At present, this seems to be an increasingly popular alternative to sites like iTunes, WalMart, eMusic, etc which operates their business on a pay-per-download system. There are occasions you can find iTunes offering certain songs for free downloading but such occasions are really rare. Registering with a paid membership site is still more cost effective for free iPod music downloads. Period.
So it is not wrong for anyone to say that downloading iPod music at these online membership sites is free afterall. It is simple maths that the more you download, the average cost per piece of music goes down and down until you reach a point where the cost per download is almost zero. For example, I paid $40 for the lifetime membership and download close to 2000 songs. Each song cost me 2 cents per song only. Free iPod music downloads is within reach as we download more.
In everything, there are the good ones and the not-so-good sites. But generally, these are the few factors you need to watch out for. The sites must offer a wide selection of all kinds of music giving you a personalized feel when you download music at these download sites. Everyone must be able to find their favorite music there. With millions of songs in store at several popular and reliable sites, it is almost a certainty that you would find what you are looking for. The technical and customer support must be top-notch and assist you should you face any difficulty in downloading music from their sites to your iPod.
Free iPod music downloads do not only mean they cost nothing. They must also be free from adware, spyware and viruses so that you can download them with a peace of mind. Only when these download sites satisfy these conditions are they considered worthy to join. Read up a review on my music blog to find out which sites are great places for free iPod music downloads.
