Free Music Downloads
Just in case you did not know. . . Android Market and Google Music give away "new tracks each day from today's hottest artists as well as classic favorites, all for free."
I really love this service. I've already found many songs I like but had forgotten about. One thing to note, though: my Android device (AT&T Galaxy S w/2.2) will not download songs while using the UDel or UDel Secured wireless network. Troubleshooting it I found that outside servers were blocked from TCP ports 80 and 443 on these wireless nets and so the music app was unable to establish a download link... :(
There's also a list of free music and videos on iTunes here: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewRoom?fcId=328879919&id=38
