Always had a hard time finding royalty free music for my videos.

There are many legal music hosting services that allow one to find a lot of free music all in one place. Be aware that the fact that a website offers free music does not imply the files are licensed for sharing – many sites forbid sharing in their terms of service.

You can download free music from many sites. Some of

them allow you to buy the band’s CD from the same page as

the MP3 download. Among them are:

• New Melodies- set the music free
