8 Tipps um den richtigen Musik-Anbieter zu finden
by admin on Mrz.08, 2008, under Freie Musik
Es gibt mittlerweile viele MP3 Download Seiten, die eine gute Alternative zu iTunes sind, wenn es um das MP3 runterladen geht. Folgend findest du 8 Tipps, wie man die richtigen Download Seiten findet.
1. Bezahlen je Titel oder Einmalzahlung
Man sollte vor der Anmeldung immer überprüfen ob die Seite eine Mitgliedschaft zum monatlichen Festpreis anbietet. Viele Musikliebhaber nutzen diese Variante, da es ziemlich kostspielig ist jedes Mal 0,99 EUR zu zahlen, wenn man ein Lied downloaden möchte.
2. Unbegrenzte Anzahl von iPod Media Dateien
Viele Download Seiten bieten mehr als nur iPod Musik Downloads. Sie haben Musik, Filme, Soundtracks, Musikvideos, TV Shows usw. in ihrem Angebot. Diese Angebote sind den monatlichen Beitrag allemal wert.
3. Musikauswahl (continue reading…)

Yahoo switches to Real for unlimited music
by admin on Feb.05, 2008, under Freie Musik
Yahoo today tilted the balance of digital music by announcing that Yahoo Music would switch to RealNetworks’ Rhapsody for its on-demand music, replacing the Yahoo Music Unlimited service for subscription services. The move will see existing Yahoo subscribers transition over to Rhapsody accounts over the next several months, beginning mid-year, and will make Yahoo’s music services accessible from devices which were previously limited to the Real service; devices such as Logitech’s Squeezebox media streaming hub and TiVo recorders will now have access to Yahoo’s services. Both companies also plan to collaborate on a la carte downloads in the future.

Does DRM-Free Music Matter?
by admin on Jan.14, 2008, under Freie Musik, Randinformationen
A couple of weeks ago, I surmised that because Apple enjoys a dominating end-to-end position in the digital music market, most consumers are never really affected by the DRM restrictions they impose — if users are buying music to play on their iPods, then they don’t really come in contact with the DRM. If consumers aren’t bothered by DRM, or perhaps not even aware that it exists, will “no DRM” resonate as a marketing message? Recently released sales data seems to suggest so. (continue reading…)

Radioheads free Album now the top-selling CD in the US!
by admin on Jan.12, 2008, under Alben, Randinformationen
In a twist for the music industry’s digital revolution, “In Rainbows,” the new Radiohead album that attracted wide attention when it was made available three months ago as a digital download for whatever price fans chose to pay, ranked as the top-selling album in the country this week after the CD version hit record shops and other retailers.
The album, the first in four years from the closely watched British rock act, sold 122,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan. That represents a mixed result for the band. It’s a sharp drop compared with the debut of Radiohead’s previous album, 2003’s “Hail to the Thief,” but it’s far from a flop, considering the steep decline in music sales in the last four years and the typically weak sales in the post-Christmas period. “Thief” sold about 300,000 in its first week in 2003.
In any case the figures challenge the conventional wisdom that music fans no longer have an affinity for plastic. The sales of the album, which also snagged the top spot on the British weekly music chart, came despite the fact that “In Rainbows” — in the form of digital files — had been acquired by many fans after the band offered it in an unconventional pay-what-you-want offering through a Web site, inrainbows.com. The album was released on plastic CDs and vinyl LPs on Jan. 1, with the CD priced at $13.98, though it could be found for as little as $7.99 at outlets like Amazon.com.
Some retailers viewed the Radiohead figures as a sign of the continuing market for so-called physical products in the music business, where the popularity of iTunes, music blogs and other sites have made the digital file appear to be the coin of the realm. In particular they said even fans who received the digital files distributed by Radiohead may have decided to pay for the better audio quality versions on CD or LP.
“Having a physical, archival high-fidelity master recording that you can side-load into your MP3 player of choice for a similar price is significantly better than just purchasing zeros and ones,” said Eric Levin, owner of the independent record shop Criminal Records in Atlanta and founder of an 18-member alliance of independent retailers. “I feel like that’s what 75 percent of the people are saying.”
Mr. Levin said that at his store vinyl copies of “In Rainbows” outsold the CD by a wide margin. Demand for the album was such that some record shops put it on sale before the label’s planned “street date,” resulting in sales of about 9,000 copies the previous week.
But sales of the plastic and vinyl versions of the album also received a boost from digital services like iTunes, where the album sold about 28,000 copies. The iTunes service, which sells individual songs for 99 cents and albums typically for $9.99, had not carried any of the band’s previous albums, owing in part to Radiohead’s demand that its recordings be sold only as complete works.
But Bryce Edge, one of Radiohead’s managers, said the band decided to sell “In Rainbows” on iTunes because it expects that EMI, the British music giant that released the band’s first six albums, will soon post them for sale on the service, and it would be strange for the new album to be excluded. An EMI representative declined to comment.
The decision to release the music as a digital file so far in advance of the CD also allowed time for the music to circulate on free, unlicensed file-swapping networks. Big Champagne, a tracking service that studies file-sharing, estimates that the album was downloaded more than 100,000 times on free networks in the first 24 hours after Radiohead delivered it to fans who had preordered it from its Web site. But Eric Garland, chief executive of Big Champagne, said that by offering the music for as little as zero from their own site, Radiohead “stole market share” from pirate networks.
Mr. Edge said that sales of 100,000 copies of the album this week would be “almost certainly less than the number we would have achieved if we hadn’t” offered it as a digital download. But the band still came out ahead, he said, in part because it attracted so many fans to Radiohead’s Web site, where it collected e-mail addresses from fans looking to acquire the album.
The band has not said how many copies it distributed. Now that the CD is in shops, some fans who paid for the initial downloads may have been tempted to buy the album, in effect, for a second time. But Steve Gottlieb, chief of the independent label TVT Records, said he believed the sales mainly reflected fans who were acquiring the music for the first time.
“Radiohead is one of those really big groups that appeals to people outside the intensely pirating demographic of 16 to 29,” he said. “To the extent Radiohead still has a significant audience in its 30s and 40s, there’s a bigger audience of those people who will still pick up something at Best Buy or don’t want to bother with figuring out how to go to a Radiohead Web site and track it down.”
Still, Mr. Gottlieb said, the sales suggested that the band’s name-your-price offering, and fans’ subsequent free sharing of files, had taken a toll. “Clearly we can’t give it all away and expect to sell CDs,” he said.
But Radiohead will have yet more opportunities to gain fans. The band said yesterday that it planned to perform in more than 20 North American cities this year.

Free Music for Downloads and Listening!
by admin on Jan.10, 2008, under Freie Musik, WebRadio
Hey, I know you. RIAA lawsuits have scared you off P2P, but the iTunes DRM is both too expensive and too restrictive for your tastes, right? Then it’s time you head to the web. In the past year the number of web sites linking to free downloads and streaming music has exploded, meaning there are more ways than ever to get your music fix. Today I’ll highlight the best web sites—and best search kung-fu—for finding free music online.
MP3 Search Engines and Streaming Sites
First I’m going to take a look at sites that make it easy to both stream and download music, starting with my favorite of the bunch: The Hype Machine.
The Hype Machine aggregates MP3s from the vast world of music blogs. Searching for an artist in The Hype Machine returns tons of results, and you can stream the songs inline in the results. The site itself provides links to buy music at Amazon or in iTunes if it’s available, but you can also click through the read the original blog post containing the song and download music directly from that site. The handy player at the bottom of The Hype Machine’s page creates a playlist of all the results on a page so listening to the results is easy. You can also choose favorites to build playlists. Most of the sites in the section are brand new, but Hype Machine has time on its side, having been around since 2005.
SeeqPod is a straight up MP3 search engine at first glance, but after you perform your first search you’ll notice a fancy Flash app that makes it easy to create playlists in your browser via a simple drag-and-drop interface. SeeqPod doesn’t have easy to find download links for the songs, but the URLs are readily available if you’re willing to do the typing. Even cooler, though, SeeqPod has an iPhone/iPod touch-optimized interface for streaming any song directly in mobile Safari.
SkreemR is another simple, barebones MP3 search engine. Like Hype Machine, SkreemR pulls its content from across the internet and can stream any song in your browser. Unlike Hype Machine, SkreemR has simple download links for every file you listen to so you don’t need to follow it to the source if you want to download it.
Thesixtyone has positioned itself to be a Digg-like community for music, which makes it a great place to discover new music (though it still handles search like the rest of them). Some songs on Thesixtyone include direct links for downloads, while others only provide links to buy the music on Amazon MP3. (Read more)
Deezer is a well designed site with more of a focus on building playlists, rating songs, and other more advanced features for registered users (though you don’t have to be registered to use the site). You can even view and listen to entire albums on Deezer. Like the others listed above, you’ll find tons of great music there, but download links can be hard to come by.
BeeMP3 isn’t really about streaming music or making playlists—it’s more of a straight search and download site, providing details like bitrate, format, and frequency of the encoded music file. You can’t preview music, but you can sure download it.
Most of the music you’ll find on Songza consists of live recordings, which is excellent for finding rare songs or performances, but unfortunately Songza isn’t much for providing download links—but at least their player embeds nicely (as you can see above).
For those of you who want to make sure that you’re not downloading any copyrighted material, CCHits aggregates Creative Commons-only music so you can download anything you want, guilt-free.
Tools to Streamline Your MP3 Downloads
Now that you know where to download all that music from your browser, you’ll probably need a few tools to streamline the process.If you’re an iTunes user, might I recommend the Windows-only add-on Tunestor, which adds a “Download Directly to iTunes” option to you right-click context menu in both Firefox and Internet Explorer so that you don’t have to go through the rigmarole of the save-and-move-to-iTunes process every time you find a new song you like.
Alternately, iTunes lovers may also want to check out iTunes Folder Watch, a freeware Windows app that can monitor folders of your choosing (your Downloads folder, for example) and automatically add your new songs to your iTunes library.
If you just can’t seem to find a download link but you’d kill to get a hold of the song that’s streaming in your browser, stream rippers like StationRipper and Screamer Radio can easily do the dirty work for you.
Tools to Download and Listen to Your Music Over the Internet
Finally, they may require a bit more work on your part than the options above, but if you’re willing to take a few minutes you can easily access your own music library anywhere with one of the following tools. lets you upload your entire music library to their servers using their uploader application (for now it’s free), stream, and manage it using a very iTunes-like browser-based Flash player. It also has a great social aspect that allows you to stream music from other users’ libraries. Not too shabby.
If you’d rather not put the keys to your music in someone else’s hands, Orb, a freeware, Windows-only application streams music from your home computer to any other computer through your web browser. It takes a little setting up, but we walk you through it here
.
Googling You Free Muisc
No discussion about finding free music on the web would be complete without mentioning the classic Google search that can yield tons of results of directories full of downloadable MP3s. First, there’s the straight-up Google search chock-full of operators to find those music files in open directories:
-inurl:(htm|html|php) intitle:”index of” +”last modified” +”parent directory” +description +size +(wma|mp3) “artist|album|track|etc”
Just replace the “artist|album|track|etc” section with whatever you’re searching for… like this one. You can also tweak the search to yield other search results, looking for other filetypes (it’s looking for WMAs and MP3s above).
Alternately, there’s the free, open source application Google Hacks, which is designed specifically to do the dirty work of searching for whatever files (music, video, or otherwise) available in Google-land.
Surely we’ve missed a favorite or two, so if you’ve got a resource for finding free music on the web worth mentioning, let’s hear it in the comments.

Auch Amazon springt auf den DRM freien Musik Zug!!
by admin on Jan.07, 2008, under Randinformationen
In Zusammenarbeit mit der Warner Music Group beginnt Amazon in Kürze mit dem Verkauf Kopierschutz-freier Musik (DRM freie Musik) im MP3-Format. Das Angebot wird um knapp 3 Millionen Musikstücke aufgestockt und vorerst leider ausschließlich in den USA verfügbar sein. Durch den schwachen Dollarkurs kostet jeder Song ca. 70 cent (0,7 EUR)
Laut Bill Carr, Amazon.com Vice President of Digital Music, “erfreuen sich unsere Kunden an unserem DRM-freien Musikangebot. Durch die Kooperation mit Warner Music bauen wir dieses Angebot weiter aus, um Kunden die Freiheit zu geben ihre Musik problemlos auf jedem MP3-Player wiedergeben zu können.”
In der Vergangenheit stießen gewillte Käufer immer wieder auf Kompatibilitätsprobleme mit kopiergeschützter Musik, was oft für Verunsicherung sorgte. Als Apple, weltgrößter Online-Anbieter in diesem Segment, vor ein paar Monaten damit begann auch Musik ohne DRM-Schutz im iTunes-Store anzubieten, sahen Experten bereits eine Trendwende. Kunden beantworteten diesen Schritt mit wachsender Kaufbereitschaft.
