How To Get Free Movies and TV SHows on Our iPods

This afternoon I put two episodes of my favorite TV show on my iPod to watch while I am traveling tomorrow. Hmm - that sounds like it took all afternoon. When actually - using the best software I have used in a very long time  - it took but moments. In know - I should do a commercial on it or something!

But I admit I’m pretty chuffed about it. Like four clicks and the shows were on my iPod. It was that easy to use and that fast.

Now, I did have the video files already on my computer (I’ll explain how I got them in my next post). And using this free TransferMy Videosoftware, it was a case of clicking ‘browse’ to find the video file, clicking on the image provided to choose iPod, clicking ’start converting’, and a few minutes later - iTunes opened and the video was ready to be synced to my iPod. It was GREAT! And it was free!!

Now, I admit, the free version does have a watermark in the middle of the screen - which can be annoying. But if it bothers you, then its real cheap software and well worth getting. AND I found a promo for it - only works for the next couple of days - but I’m gonna get it and I thought I’d post it here for anyone else who might be interested.

The Free version can be got HERE

An Better Alternative to iTunes?

We have been aware of the Rockbox site for some time - but not being tech geeks, were not able to make good use of it. Why the interest? Well, they offer a quality alternative player to iTunes. Here is what they have to say about their player:

Rockbox aims to be considerably more functional and efficient than your device’s stock firmware while remaining easy to use and customizable. …It is written by users, for users.

Fortunately for us,  a Youtube video has been released just today, that explains how easy it is to download and use the Rockbox firmware.

Download Legal Music Free!

Interested in getting free music? Have you heard of “creative commons license”? Well, these are licenses that allow musicians to waive their copy rights for us users - or for other musicians who may want to use the music for further vreative work. In fact:

Creative Commons has been described as being at the forefront of the copyleft movement, which seeks to support the building of a richer public domain by providing an alternative to the automatic “all rights reserved” copyright, dubbed “some rights reserved.” (Wikipedia)

Soundclick is a site that offers musician the opportunity to provide their music through creative commons license. And so offers us the opportunity to download free music!

On the home page there are several options to choose from in the header bar. Click on “Music” and select license songs and beats from the drop down menu. In the header bar under the “license songs and beats” you will see that you can choose the type of license. The drop down menu will give you the choice of “commercial license ($)” or “creative commons (Free)”. Select creative commons and the genre of music you like and hit “go”

For “Pop” for example, the current result is 14,841 licenses have been found!! You will have to register to become a member with Soundclick - but its free and there are over 300,000 songs available on Soundclick through Creative commons license. When you choose a song you want, just click “full” and you will be sent to where you can download to iTunes. Above is one example of a free song from the rock genre.
