Well, I've got to say I'm Mr Cheapo when it comes to downloading music. Because my tastes are so eclectic, I've been happily discovering new artists and bands on all the sites offering free - AND legal - mp3s.

So I would recommend the likes of
www.pastemusic.com - where I've discovered the excellent Jan Krist, and Over The Rhine
www.pitchforkmedia.com/mp3/ - good for indie/alternative rock stuff
www.garageband.com - a real mix of genres, from blues to electronica
www.betterpropoganda.com - from rock to hip hop


Plus of course there are big name bands/artists offering free mp3s if you look in the right places - eg went to www.amazon.com yesterday and picked up two Joss Stone tracks, Last Nite by The Strokes, two songs by Alison Krauss, the new Beth Gibbons (ex Portishead singer) single and a song by Earl Slick with Robert Smith of The Cure. Not bad!!

Anyone else got any free, legal, sources to pass on?
