How to Use PayPal With Any Music Site

Sometimes, when you find some nice mp3 music, a rare bootleg album, or a just released single of your favorite artist the only problem you might have is secure and reliable payment method. Currently, not all websites selling cheap and legal mp3 music can offer PayPal payments - but cry no more - there's an old trick how to use your PayPal account to pay for mp3 music.

We have discussed it back in 2008 and now I only wanted to add that this option has two main advantages:
1. You don't have to disclose your credit card details (as you are only using PayPal details);
2. The payments are made using PayPal gateways so you can rely on their security and reliability.

MP3Panda is Down: Official Announcement

Couple of days ago, official representative of MP3Panda (also known as MP3Fiesta for a long time) said that the site is 'no longer active', and they decided to 'give up'. Reasons are still unknown, but some say it's all about RIAA fight against so called 'Russian MP3 Sites' - dozen of resources providing cheap and legal mp3 music run by russian enthusiasts.

That means that we have lost one of the largest mp3 resources. MP3Panda is down, but don't be down! There are several mp3 sites out there to become a real alternative to the site (remember allofmp3?) - you can find good reviews of cheap and legal mp3 sites at Badbee site.

Downloading Music to iPod and iPhones

Owners of iPhones and iPods know about prices at iTunes. It is really too expensive to buy mp3 from iTunes. This is where LegalSounds comes into play. You can download music for just 9¢ per track from the site. Frankly speaking, that’s quite a saving, when iTunes charges $0.99 per song.

Great news! But how do you get the music to your device?

If you’re anything like me, it’s all very confusing to start with! But don’t worry, if you do need a bit of help, or have no idea where to start, it’s not as tough as you think.

This guide will cover two things; getting the the music from LegalSounds to your PC and getting the music from your PC to your iPod.

Downloading from LegalSounds
Downloading music from LegalSounds is very easy. Once you’re registered and have some money on your account, you just need to start finding some music you want to download.

1. Find an album, or track, you want to download.
2. Tick the check box next track you want, of if you want the whole album, click ‘Select All’.
3. Once the tracks or album you want are checked, click ‘Buy Selected’.
4. You will be asked to confirm that you want to download the music and the amount that will be deducted from your account. Click OK to accept and buy the music.
5. You will see ‘Purchase Succeeded’ and instructions on how to get the song to your PC. To do this, click ‘My Downloads’ on the ‘Purchase Succeeded’ page. (You can also get to ‘My Downloads’ at the very top of the site).
6. ‘My Downloads’ contains all the music you have purchased from LegalSounds. You now need to download the tracks to your PC so you can use them. The ‘My Downloads’ screen has full instructions on how to do this, but if you need help, keep reading.
7. Find the music you want to download. If you want to download tracks, right-click on the name of the track, if you want the whole album, right click on the name of the album.
8. Click ‘Save Target As’ or ‘Save Link As’ and select a location. You can save your music wherever you want on your PC.
9. If you want the music to go to your iTunes library, the best place to save the file is the iTunes folder, which is inside your ‘My Music’ folder.
10. Navigate to this, if you’re using the latest version of iTunes, inside the iTunes folder will be another, ‘iTunes Media’.
11. Inside there will be yet another folder called ‘Automatically Add to iTunes’.
12. Save all your LegalSounds music here and iTunes will do the rest. It will add any music to your iTunes library that you put into that folder.

Hopefully all that will make sense! Once you have the music in your iTunes library, you can do what you want with it. To get the music to your iPod, plug in your iPod and you can then drag the songs across to it, ready for you to take with you anywhere you go.

MP3Panda Gets Even Cheaper

MP3Panda is getting even cheaper and more attractive for clients after lowering prices down to 5 cents per track.
Now all songs cost only $0.05!!! That makes MP3Panda the cheapest mp3 website now.

MP3Fiesta Refill Balance Problems

MP3Fiesta, well-known Russian MP3 downloading site offering very cheap and legal mp3 music downloads, is currently experiencing credit card processing issues. Apparently, you can't refill your balance at the service, but still can use its downloading features.

There're some posts in various forums and boards that say it's a temp problem and it's being solved. Hope MP3Fiesta will continue on to provide cheap music.

Meanwhile, I'm using Soundike (which has no problems, knock-knock) to buy DRM-free cheap music and feel confident waiting for MP3Fiesta to resurect! You may want to read about other services to download mp3 at my Squidoo lense.
