Why Pay for Music Downloads? : Free Music Downloads

[blue_moon]

Every time when you are online, you are bombarded with offers for music downloads. Some of these music downloads are free, some aren’t. The strangest thing is that there are people who pay for downloading music, which essentially is the same as leaving a buck by a wild apple tree after you have eaten an apple or two. This peculiarity is not unheard of and it is similar to the group of people who put a penny in the take-a-penny-leave-a-penny box at the gas station. When these people are told to “take one”, they really take only one, thus making the rest of us (who take more than one) feel ashamed or at least aware of the fact that we can’t follow simple written orders. But if such honest souls didn’t exist, the musical business would have died because it would have been unable to pay its stars millions of dollars. Free and paid music downloads are hot stuff nowadays. There are plenty of sites, which sell music downloads. It is even possible to download music and listen to it on your mobile phone. Technology has gone long way from polyphonic ring tones. Now songs are played on your mobile with the same quality as from DVD. There are many sites where you can pay and you can download a song. Songs cost from .30 cents to $1.99, which is not cheap. If you make the calculations, one CD has 16 to 24 songs. If each song costs $1.99, this means that the whole CD costs $31.84-$47.76. The first CDs cost only $16 and there were only 2 to choose from: Michael Jackson’s Bad and MC Hammer - Please Hammer don’t Hurt ‘em. Compare today’s offers to that and see how these sites want to make you pay fifty dollars for a CD of Hillary Duff. This is simply ridiculous and you can pay for music downloads only if you like burning money. You have a much better choice – get music downloads for free and spend your bucks on something more worthwhile.
