How To Download Music

First, download rarzilla, winRAR, winzip 7, or some other .rar extracting device.

Second, find a download. I will link to a download in all of my posts, so you don't need to look to hard for that.

Third, download it. Choose 'open with winRAR'. When it is done downloading, it will open with your .rar extractor.

Fourth, extract it to someplace you will remember it. Then retrieve it with iTunes or the Zune software or whatever it is you use. (for iTunes, go to 'Files', then to 'Add Folder To Library', and then go to where you extracted the folder)

Finally, listen and enjoy!

WinRar or Rarzilla work well. Rarzilla is a bit easier to use instantly and puts a fancy little icon on the rar files instead of the boring generic one, but is not capable of creating rar files. Winrar takes a bit to learn but has many more features and doesn't look as pretty. To get the programs,

-rarzilla

or

-winrar

p.s. -full version winrar only available for a fee

WRONG, captcaffeine. winrar's 'trial' version never expires, so it might as well be free.

Right... the problem most people would have is finding the download. Know any good sites?
