Patrons of the New Braunfels Public Library have a weekly download allotment, and a DAILY streaming allotment. The download counter and the streaming time remaining are at the top of the page once you login. How to stream, and how to download. Nothing has changed with Freegal Music download functionality from earlier versions, except that the sample clips are now gone. Streaming is, after all, a license to sample. a) When you put your cursor over an album, you will see a “stream now” button. If you press that button on an album, the whole album will play in order. b) You can also use “Freegal Playlists.” This is a list of pre-selected songs, including music arranged by decade (60’s, 70’s, 80’s, etc.), as well as Pop, Rock, Country, Broadway tunes, popular new songs, etc. c) To create a playlist of your own you may select songs or complete albums and make these into playlists you save with an identifying name (e.g., “Psychedelic Furs,” “Chopin Preludes and Nocturnes”) and listen to as often as you wish.

When you’ve found the song you want, click on the “Download Now” link next to the chosen song. At the prompt, select “Save” and choose where you want to save the song. Why does the counter say I’ve downloaded 3 songs when I’m sure I haven’t? You may have started a download then changed your mind and canceled it. Once you click the “download now” button, it can’t be reversed. It will count towards your download limit even if you cancel or choose “play” instead of “download.” When does the counter reset to 0? A week begins at 12:01 am on Monday morning. My song didn’t download completely or only the first few seconds of my song plays. What do I do?

Here you have the ability to re-download a previously downloaded song up to two more times within 2 weeks from the original download for reinstall purposes, in case your connection timed out. Once you have downloaded a song twice from the Recent Downloads page, the song titles disappear from your list because they are no longer available to you. Will the songs downloaded work on the iPod or iPad? Yes. How do I burn music to a CD? Each computer system is different. You can use iTunes, Windows Media Player or a third party software like Roxie.

  • The Music Industry in the Social Networking Era
    THE MUSIC INDUSTRY IN THE SOCIAL NETWORKING ERA By Xi Yue A THESIS Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Telecommunication, Information Studies and Media 2011 Abstract THE MUSIC INDUSTRY IN THE SOCIAL NETWORKING ERA By Xi Yue Music has long been a pillar of profit in the entertainment industry, and an indispensable part in many people’s daily lives around the world. The emergence of digital music and Internet file sharing, spawned by rapid advancement in information and communication technologies (ICT), has had a huge impact on the industry. Music sales in the U.S., the largest national market in the world, were cut in half over the past decade. After a quick look back at the pre-digital music market, this thesis provides an overview of the music industry in the digital era. The thesis continues with an exploration of three motivating questions that look at social networking sites as a possible major outlet and platform for musical artists and labels. A case study of a new social networking music service is presented and, in conclusion, thoughts on a general strategy for the digital music industry are presented.

  • Stream-Ripping: Its Role in the UK Music Piracy Landscape Three Years On
    Stream-ripping: Its role in the UK music piracy landscape three years on September 2020 PRS for Music Foreword Stream-ripping: its role in the UK music piracy landscape three years on builds on research we published with the Intellectual Property Office three years ago. The initial research, Stream-ripping: How it works and its role in the UK music piracy landscape, came at a time when little work had been done to understand the size of problem posed by stream-ripping. The previous report allowed us to map the landscape of online music piracy and to gain insight into the functioning and the business model of stream-ripping services. We found evidence to support our assumption that stream-ripping was on course to become the dominant mode of online infringement. This second wave of research shows that our expectation is now the reality: stream-ripping services account for more than 80% of the top 50 music specific piracy sites. We can see that the services are becoming more sophisticated, offering better quality downloads, evolving their revenue streams, and becoming more adept at operating beneath the radar, with many using the popular content delivery network Cloudflare to obfuscate the location of their servers. But what we can also see is that concerted efforts by the industry do work: a reduction of more than 50% of BitTorrent sites can be attributed to increased geo-blocking and enforcement efforts over the past three years. Since this research was conducted, the world has changed beyond what anyone could have imagined. Amidst the massive societal changes, the almost global lockdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has also accelerated the acculturation of digital services.
