1483293 2022-01-04 19:57:00 I would like to download and save some mp3s for a friend who wants to play them at his wedding which is being held outside well away from a wi-fi signal.

I would appreciate it if someone could tell me how to do that, please. :thanks

1483294 2022-01-04 20:08:00 Depends on where they are coming from. Some places will allow you to download, others you need to use various methods. For example Theres Millions on Spotify and theres ways to either download or play off line.

Bit more info would be helpful please :)

1483296 2022-01-04 21:12:00 You can download music files (videos) in MP3 format from You Tube.

You don't download the videos, just the sound tracks.

1483297 2022-01-04 21:26:00 The problem with answering the question is the most common method is via torrent sites and is illegal, posting it on a public forum is a risk. The sites themselves are not illegal although that's still under debate in a lot of countries but using them to get copyrighted material for free is. Even Zippitys suggestion isn't really allowed, not sure how the software makers get away with that.

Legitimate sites where you can buy MP3s are easy to find though www.makeuseof.com

If you want to go the other way google can probably point you there, or maybe someone could tell you privately.

1483298 2022-01-04 21:51:00 Thank you Wainui. What sort of info would you like? Mainly, if you have some particular songs in mind / listed you want what site are they on ?

One of the problems with some of the paid sites ( itunes for example) they used to be DRM coded so couldn't play on anything other than the original devices(s) or require internet connections to verify. Dont know if they are still that way or not ? Others Like Spotify, while you can download, they have to be played within Spotify. ( theres ways around that as well ) :D

1483299 2022-01-05 00:39:00 If you use Firefox then install addon/extension "Easy Youtube Video Downloader Express" and then you will be able to download videos or reasonable quality mp3's from uTube. zqwerty (97)
1483300 2022-01-05 00:48:00 iTunes sells drm free audio now. There’s other sites as well like bandcamp but that te da to be electronics focused.
Google music is another one, I assume it all drm free now, but could t say for certain.

Else you’re up for using a steaming service - Spotify etc. which you can use for free with ads. Or pay for a subscription (trial?). I saw that you will be without WiFi…so Spotify premium can support This as with a subscription you can offline the music when under WiFi for use where there is no signs (or just use mobile data)

Lastly there’s the illegal route as mentioned. Or do it old school and hire the discs from the library and rip them.

1483301 2022-01-05 04:28:00 When I came onto the site late afternoon it said that I had a PM from you but I could not access it. Will you be able to send your message to lambournross@gmail.com ? That would be helpful, thank you. Roscoe (6288)
1483302 2022-01-05 04:43:00 Unless you want to be spammed always post an email addy in this form:

lambournross at gmail dot com

that way the spiders will not immediately recognize it as an email addy by its usual form.
