Free and Fast MP3 downloads are the rage of the town. And I am not talking about one or two towns here – this observation is true to a multitude of towns all over the world. From Seattle to Tokyo, from Detroit to Sydney, MP3 is the way to be. And the fact that it is all mostly free makes it all the more popular. Good quality and fast download music software has made its presence felt like there is no tomorrow. While the voices raising concern over propriety rights and copyright infringements are also justified in their concern, the fact of the matter is that attempts to download music free of cost have reached a level of popularity unparalleled in history.
The beauty of it all is – the attempts are successful as well. Barely one step above their free cousins are cheap MP3 players available on the net. You need to scarcely spend a few dollars and you can download music software adorning your PC that will play the latest and the best music as if you are playing it live in an amphitheater. There is a huge variety of options available with each such player. You can choose a skin of your choice – some even allow you to design one of your own. The graphics of the song can be set to suit your mood, so even the hardest of rock can be made to croon like an opera singer. There are, of course, different options for different genres of music. You can choose between pop and rock, vocal and instrumental, classical and new – fangled, and of course a large variety of others – I could run out of space and yet continue with the list.
Then there is the added option provided by many players, of even selecting the ambience in which you want to hear your music. Decide whether you want to hear Brian Adams in a room setting, or would prefer him to perform for you in a hall, or a stadium maybe? All options are available at the click of a button. Not to forget the multitude of graphics options available to you while your computer is playing your favorite songs – you have a choice between simple themes like waterfalls and fountains, to complex ones like spacecraft, fire and battery particle animations that can take your breath away, leaving you wondering which is better – the music or the visualizations!
Software like the Windows Media Player come bundled with the operating system itself and has an extremely large variety of options in itself. Others that are available on the internet, however, add greatly to the features available for use, making the Media Player look pale in comparison. There is a massive desire in the public to have safe downloads, and the growth of the latest cheap as well as free music software has kept pace with the speed at which the music industry has spread on the internet. Cheap is not always safe, but the options available are growing. More about this aspect in my next article. Do not forget to sign in again next week!
