How to Get Free Music for the iPod

Free music is available for the iPod.

As of 2011, an iPod could serve as an Internet surfer, a video camera, a reading device, a camera, and a music player. The music element included "Cover Flow," which placed a photo on the iPod screen of the album being played. It did not come with free music, but free music is available through some other sources.

Instructions

1. Visit the main page of the iTunes Store. While single songs cost between 99 cents and $1.29 as of 2011, the site also offers a sample of free music every week. New music is released on Tuesdays.

2. The website iT's Free Downloads tracks free iTunes downloads, including music from some of the international iTunes stores.
