How to Listen to Music on the Internet for Free...Legally
There are plently of places on the Internet where you can listen to music for free. Just to be clear, we said "listen," not "download." The types of sites fall into three categories and it doesn't matter what operating system you are using.
Streaming Internet Radio
Like radio, but better, more customizable, and on your computer. "Stations" are programmed around your favorite artists and sites can predict your tastes over time.
Music Blogs and Music Blog Aggregators
As the name suggests, music blogs are blogs dedicated to music. When songs are blogged they are usually posted so that readers can listen, discuss, and comment. Aggregators gather songs from various blogs and stream/organize them from a single site.
Online Music Stores
While music stores want you to buy their music, they recognize that some people like to listen to music before purchasing it. Some stores let you listen to entire songs, some stores only let you listen to a clip, and other stores limit the number of songs you can listen to.
