How To Download And Transfer Music Files From Your Computer To Your iPod

A lot of people get an iPod and then realize they have absolutely no idea how to copy music from their PC to their iPod. Or at least, they don’t know how to get music free – that’s the most important thing. You see, although one could and probably (in ethical terms) should pay for all of their songs, putting music on one’s iPod the legal way is incredibly expensive. There’s no other way to put it – it’s very costly!

Thankfully for you, though, we’re going to teach you how to transfer songs from the computer to an iPod and most importantly, not spend a dime at all while doing it. All you’re going to need is a computer with an Internet connection, an iPod, a transfer cable and the knowledge of how to copy music from a PC to your device (which we’re going to teach you, obviously).

Before you even learn the bare basics of music transferring, you need to learn how to download free music. The best way to acquire music for free is through either torrents or membership sites that are widely-regarded and well-respected.

If you go the torrents route, then just download Bit Torrent then do a quick Google search for torrents for whatever particular song, artist or CD you want to download.

For the membership sites, simply join up with them and you’re essentially good to go and can just download whatever songs, CD’s or artists you want. Out of the two, membership sites are definitely the easiest although torrents can get you to the same place too. And usually much quicker (and easier).

Transferring Songs

Once you have the songs you want to put on your iPod downloaded, just connect your transfer cable to your computer (usually through the USB jack) and the iPod and then get transferring. You usually have to click a few things either on the computer end or the iPod end, but they’ll pop up automatically and are pretty much self-explanatory.

All in all, it’s not hard at all to transfer music from your computer to the  iPod and now you’re ready to roll and get all of the music you could possibly want for free on your iPod. Like we said before, the hardest part of how to get music for your iPod is actually acquiring the music for free. With torrents or membership sites, though, you’re good to go and will have an easy-to-use, go-to resource at your fingertips that you can use to get whatever music your little heart desires.

There you go! Now you know copy music from computer to iPod! Now what are you waiting for? Go get to work!
