It's the age of freebies. Today, we are able to download e-books, stream movies, and listen to music, all free of charge - and legally! It's only a question of where to locate these goodies.

So in terms of music is concerned, where can we have them free of charge? Here are a few sites you'd want to look at:

1. Grooveshark (grooveshark.com).Grooveshark is one of many largest music streaming services in the world. This site enables you to find and listen to your favourite music, make your own personalized playlist, browse for new songs, and share them on social networking and bookmarking sites with only one click.

You are able to listen to free unlimited radio on your Android, Blackberry, Nokia, Jailbroken iPhone, or HP Web OS smartphone simply by downloading the Grooveshark app.

It even offers features such as the video mode, which lets you watch YouTube videos of your favourite songs; the Power Hour mode, which automatically moves one to a new song every 60 seconds; and the visualizer, which adds a visible element to accompany your music.

2. Spotify Best Practices (spotify.com). The Spotify free account provides you with instant usage of an incredible number of tracks for your streaming pleasure. You can enjoy and organize your own MP3s, and you can share them with your friends, as well as get your friends'recommendations, and listen to them instantly with only a press of a Facebook button.

If you wish to listen to music offline on your desktop or mobile, though, you'll have to get the paid Premium account.

It's significantly more than 6.8 million tracks from four major record labels and a wide array of independent labels. If you want to get the tracks, you certainly can do so from the in-site store.

4. Last.fm (last.fm).If you like listening to music but are too lazy to look for the music you want, try Last.fm, a music recommendation service. Just sign up, download the Scrobbler software, and let that little tool deliver personalised recommendations based on what songs or artists you listen to the majority of often. boost plays on Spotify
