Digital MusicGuide to the best music download sitesIf you've got an MP3 or other digital music player, you can buy and download your songs from various sites. We suggest you stick to these legal download services instead of the illegal free ones (click here for more info on the myths and risks of downloading free music).
Apple iTunes  www.apple.com/uk/itunes/ The Apple iTunes music store has sold over 200 million songs so far, setting a new milestone for online music. Their legal download catalogue includes over 700,000 tracks from major and independent labels, as well as songs recorded by artists exclusively for iTunes. Singles cost £0.79, albums start at £7.99 and you can pre-view every song for 30 seconds free.
www.napster.co.uk Napster is probably the world's most recognised brand in online music. As a Napster subscriber, you have access to unlimited streaming and downloading of over 1 million full-length hi-quality tracks. You can also burn all your favourite tracks to CD and transfer music to your portable digital music players. They currently offer a FREE 7-day trial, so it costs nothing to give it a go.
