Fast, Free & Fabulous Music – Lala!
ByI came across Lala a couple months ago. It’s an on-line music service that has been around for a year or so.
There are many free internet radio stations out there such as the huge variety from within iTunes and Musicmatch. However, if you need a quick music fix without having to log into one of these services or hook up your iPod, this is great! My fav thing to do is go to lala.com and without even having an account there, I can type in the search artist box one of my Rat Pack heroes and click the “play this artist and similar artists” button and settle back. . . ahhhh. I leave the page running and can go about my work, listening to commercial-free streaming music! If you want to check out the name of a particular song playing, it’s in the upper left corner of your screen. You can skip to the next song if you don’t care for what is currently playing. I have not found a limit as to how long I can listen at one sitting.
You can sign up for a free account and there are several things you can do after that.
- upload your iPod to Lala and have your tunes always available to you on-line
- Listen free to any Warner label album
- Make your own playlist, publish it for you and others to enjoy
- Buy music – anything you buy will play on your iPod. Prices are very competitive
- Buy used CDs – see the list for buying CDs – on the cheap
Delve into the nooks and crannies of Lala and take full advantage of the site, or just go to lala.com and start hearing the music you want in a few seconds.
