Free Music Downloads

Free music downloads Is there really such a thing
I remember back in the 90s this really existed. There was such a thing as completely free music. You could go online and get as much music as you wanted any time for absolutely nothing.
Nowadays I think theres something new...
Computer adware and and viruses! And well basically...just a bunch of low quality files.
Its sad but true.
Back in the roaring Napster era there were millions of people waiting online at any given hour of the day waiting to exchange files with you. Now youll be lucky if there are several thousand.
So what happened
Basically the major music labels decided they were sick and tired of losing billions
of dollars to people who chose to rip off their artists music. Musical piracy is just not cool and people started to catch on to this new idea.
Lawsuits started aimed at getting high profile news attention to hopefully discourage young people to stop using peer to peer services. And the efforts paid off.
Today itunes and other legal places to download free music thrive and make a profit at selling high quality relatively inexpensive downloads.
What about the rest Have all the free music download sites really disappeared
Check around the internet and you will soon see the answer before you.
