Found a great site for free mp3 music downloads.

Don't know if it's a "legal" site or not, wouldn't really know how to tell. All I know is they've got about anything and everything you'd want and it's free. PM if you want the link to the site. I would post it but I don't want the forum to get into trouble if it's not a legal site(how can you tell??).
Downloaded a lot of Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Testament, Rush, Molly Hatchet, ect. Anyway, just wanted to share. Thanks.

P.S.
You need to watch your downloads, compare the megs your downloading to the listed megs on the song list. Sometimes you'll just get part of a song if you're not careful.

PM me the site's URL, and I'll see what I can find out.

Send it along as well Frank. I will have a good guess that's it's not a legal site though....

Which means that it's likely full of viruses and malware.

So far my iMac hasn't flagged anything and once you burn it to disc you can't transfer anything to an mp3 player by using that disc since it's "Read" only and you're not actually "writing" anything to a DVD/mp3 player.
I've not had any issues at all with my computer since I've started downloading but I guess it'd be a good idea if ya'll would screen stuff with an anti-virus just to be safe.

Downloaded ClamXav and Zebra anti virus and scanned all the mp3 files and found NOTHING so they're clean.

Turns out I've been to that site before.

So is it OK then??

Just noticed a response.
Since I don't use Windows there were no virus issues so, IMHO, yeah, it's OK other than the lack of music I would have been interested in.

There's a couple sites out there that basically index mp3 files from other people's servers. They search the web for mp3's with filenames or metadata similar to songs and then list all the links. The sites themselves are not illegal; since they don't host any of the songs it's effectively just a search engine. But they provide a way for you to download an mp3 from some other random server, and that is illegal.

I don't know if this is the kind of site you guys are talking about, but if it is, use it at your own risk. (Obviously the risks associated with illegally downloading music are quite low, otherwise no one would do it!)

Definitely, many music downloading sites are associated with copyright issues. Many of them could be illegal ones. Instead of using illegal mp3 music downloading sites, I would suggest you go with these P2P sites to download one of your favourite tracks. Yes, I am sharing the FireStickTricks article here that will clarify all of your doubts about the legal or illegal use of these games, music or movies downloading sites. Mainly if you are behind the torrent ones.

I also read here you can face a lawsuit or legal problem if you upload copyrighted music files in countries like Australia, the USA or UK. These laws are also getting strong in third world countries. No doubt, P2P file sharing is legal but could involve legal matters again if you go with royalty music. I would recommend downloading music from royalty-free sources or better to pick paid options.

Best of luck!
