MUSIC: How To Expand Your Music Collection - Secrets Revealed

I've been asked so many times by friends and colleagues, "Where the hell did u get [insert artists, band or album name] album??" Well, sure there's Torrent and Limewire application. If you have a very high speed internet connection and if you're not behind firewall, you could very well use these applications. But P2P depends on the seeders mainly; if somebody's not sharing, you'll probably be stuck about a month on 98.2%.

Well readers, here's some links where you could directly download music, albums, videos or whatever. Most of these sites are on blogspot. These sites only provide links; the actual contents are placed in an online storage sites like rapidshare, savefile, badongo etc. So I guess blogspot doesn't mind as long as their server is safe. As usual, if you like the albums, buy the original copy... Bookmark these sites and start DL-ding now..!
