How to Download Mp3 Music

If you have an mp3 player or computer you will want to download mp3 music to play on them. This can seem like a scary task because of the RIAA and Napster scares in the past for people who downloaded mp3 music illegally. Now there are ways online to buy individual mp3 song files and there are ways to download music for free that are still illegal, but much harder to get caught.

Things You'll Need

• Computer
• Internet
• Credit card

Instructions

1. Go to a music download site like Amazon or iTunes (listed under the additional resources below) and purchase the mp3 file you want at a discount rate. The music files cost anywhere from $0.50 to $1.50 each, but are legally yours after you buy download music. Save the mp3 music file to your computer or flash drive after you purchase it.

2. In the past you could download music free, but you would easily get caught as you were downloading the direct file from another person and they tracked your computers IP address. Now there are torrent mp3 files that can be downloaded from many users that have the song on their computer and are sharing them. Download the free utorrent software from the website listed below.

3. Install utorrent. Search for the mp3 file you want to download at a search engine like Google. For example , type "Britney Spears torrent" and click search. Click the music torrent files you want to download and they will open up in the utorrent program. Once you are done downloading music in the utorrent program, right-click the mp3 file you downloaded and click remove. This removes your computer from sharing the file to other online via torrent and you are 99% less likely to get caught.

Tips & Warnings

• Download torrents at your own risk as the RIAA fines people minimally $3,000 for downloading music illegally.
