What do you think is the best site(s) for listening to free music? Go. I like to use rhapsody.com until the 25 limit is up, and sometimes I go to imeem.com.

Limewire is a good site for downloasing music, I guess you can listen there also, but I'm not sure.

Just a warning, and I'm not saying this will happen to you or anyone else, but my boyfriend went to Limewire and they said he had to install something on his laptop for the downloads, and the laptop got a virus. And he kept complaining about the speed being way slow. Not to discourage anyone, I would just hate to have you lose anything.

Yes, Limewire is a breeding ground for viruses, since you can't get something for nothing. Don't use Limewire; instead, complain about it to them and use a different, much more virus-free place

I used limewire in Thailand for a few years, and never had a problem. However, that was more then two years ago, when I changed to mininova, so I'll take your warning and not set it up in Australia. Thanks for the warnings.

If you're already downloading videos through torrents, you can get music this way. There are various sites out there where you can download torrents. There's Mininova - www.mininova.org & Isohunt - www.isohunt.com These are some good sites to find what you're wanting as far as music and video.

I use Pandora.com for my music needs when im online. It is streaming commercial free music and it even offers a download so you can play it right from your desktop. Another great thing about it is you choose what you hear- if you start a radio station with your favorite artists- they will automatically add in songs that are similar to that artists and you choose if you like it and if it will be played again on the station you created. You can also share you radio stations via link with your friends. Many times when im updating my facebook status I will also post the link to the radio station I am listening to so my friends can share in on it ;)

I used to use Pandora.com and still do sometimes, but if you want to build playlists and have the ability to listen to (almost) any song you want, try Playlist.com - you can just log on and listen song-by-song when you want to, or you can create an account and build lists of songs you want. Each list holds 200 songs and you can have as many playlists as you want. A word of advice - listen to the entire song before you add it to a list. Sometimes the links are no good and the song will cut halfway through and move onto the next one on your list.
