Music and the Internet
Music is one of those things that can bind all of us together. It moves us, reminds us of good times and can speak to us in many different ways. Music touches our lives and as a result, many people like to be around it. Plus, music makes the time go by faster when we have an iPod or some other MP3 player to listen to when waiting on a train, getting our wisdom teeth removed or just killing time.
No longer do we get most of our music from a CD. Gone are the days of the bulky walkman and having to listen to the radio to record our favorite song on a cassette tape or having someone make you a mixed tape for your birthday. Of course, some people still like to burn CD’s, but with everyone now having an MP3 player, even car manufacturers have started to install USB ports and other ways to connect your player to your car’s stereo system.
However, one of the best ways to get this music to your MP3 is through the internet. This can be especially hard for those who either don’t have access or are limited to a very slow service such as dial up. Trying to download a three minute song off of iTunes using only dial up is sure to take a while and maybe even an hour or so.
