Let us examine these requirements for a successful music download. You can also download music tracks of your choice and save on your phone. Apple also brands iPod in conjunction with iTunes, its music web site where iPod users can purchase and download songs for less than $1 a piece.
But where do we stand in the eyes of the law, if we decide to download music. You could download your favorite videos and music tracks from the internet and play them on your phone. Most latest models have features beyond sending text messages and making voice calls—including Internet browsing, music (MP3) playback, personal organizers, e-mail, built-in cameras and camcorders, ringtones, games, radio, Push-to-Talk (PTT), infrared and Bluetooth connectivity, call registers, ability to watch streaming video or download video for later viewing, and serving as a wireless modem for a PC.
Any artist can have an online presence, promote their music to an audience of millions, and let consumers download their music to their hearts content. These music download sites include, believe it or not, Napster, with over 500,000 digital music downloads, eMusic, where you can get 50 free music downloads just for starters, Musicmatch, who has a great membership package, Realrhapsody, which offers a very nice two-week free trial, and one of my favorites and their “Always Low Prices” is the Wal-Mart music download. With microSD support of up to 2GB, users can download more music tracks, video clips and images.
You could listen to your favorite music tracks; you could also download the songs of your choice to your handset and drive away your blues. Download your favorite soundtracks and enjoy listening music tracks wherever you go. Moreover, you can download music, photos and Java games to make the maximum use of your leisure time.

Little Wing (G3, SRV ...)
Hi guys,
New year is coming! Let me share some of my favourite video clip with u all.
This is a legend song called Little Wing
"Little Wing" is a song written by Jimi Hendrix. He first recorded the song on the 1967 album Axis: Bold as Love.
"Little Wing" is played using the unique chord/melody guitar style that Hendrix developed during his early career stints in rhythm and blues bands. In this style, the guitar sounds as though it is playing two parts. This is done by simultaneously playing multiple complementary notes, often parts of chords, and then changing a note within the chord to create a melodic effect. Other songs played in this style include "Life Without You" by Stevie Ray Vaughan, "The Boy From Seattle" by Steve Vai, "Yellow Ledbetter" by Pearl Jam, and "Under the Bridge" by Red Hot Chili Peppers. The unusual flanging sound of the lead guitar part is a result of the Doppler effect which is created using a rotating speaker cabinet, or Leslie speaker.
A song by the same name appeared on Neil Young's 1980 album, Hawks & Doves, but is a different song entirely.
Happy New Year 2008!
Good luck & all the best!
I like the solo part that played by Steve Vai & John Petrucci.
Another version from Stevie Ray Vaughan (great solo arrangment!)
Acoustic version by Monte Montgomery
Carlos Vamos (tapping version - 5 stars*)

Tips: How to tune 12 String Guitar?
The chart above shows the notes that each string is tuned to. You might not know what an octave is. This term refers to an interval. It basically means that the note is 12 half-steps higher or lower than the original note. In this case, all the octaves are higher. This is explained in more detail in Lesson 11: Intervals Part 1. In the chart below, if the sounds are not given, that is because they were given in the chart above. Detail...

Tips: What is the BEST string in the world?
Hi guys,
Bassically it's not important to talk about brand when u try to choose for the guitar string.
If you haven't gone through many string changes, you probably won't even notice the difference between different brands. You'll find that your new set will undoubtedly sound brighter, punchier, and twangier. It's nothing really special about the brand, it's just because they're clean and new.
Summary:
Try to experiment with basically any kind of strings you want: Ernie balls, elixir, gibson, d'addarios, etc. and once you've gone through enough experiences you'll find out what's best for you.

Are Epiphones really Gibson guitars?
Epiphone has been owned by Gibson since 1957. When they bought the Epiphone company, all the Epiphone guitars were built in Gibson's Kalamazoo, MI factory until 1970, when production was moved to Japan. In 1983, production was moved to Korea, where it has remained ever since (with occasional exceptions).
Epiphones are built to Gibson's specifications, but they're *not* built in the Gibson factories in Nashville, Memphis, or Bozeman, MT. Got it?

Somewhere over the rainbow/ what a wonderful world (by "Iz")
Another HOT video for you.
YOU ASK FOR IT, YOU WILL GET IT...!
i hope u will love this. enjoy :)
By the way, who is Israel "Iz" Kamakawiwo'ole
Israel "Iz" Kamakawiwo'ole (May 20, 1959 – June 26, 1997) was a Hawaiian musician.
He became famous outside Hawaii when his album Facing Future was released in 1993 with his medley of "Over the Rainbow" and "What a Wonderful World", which was subsequently featured in several films, television programs, and commercials.
Kamakawiwo'ole was nicknamed "The Gentle Giant" by his admirers. He was described as always cheerful and positive, and he was best known for his love of the land and of the people of Hawa'i. Through his consummate ukulele playing and incorporation of other idioms (such as jazz and reggae), Iz remains one of the major influences in Hawaiian music over the last 15 years.

Warning! My sincere advice on buying musical instruments in eBay. (Ex: guitar, drum set...)
If you are thinking to buy musical instruments online, (Ebay..etc) please read below advices for your own good.
1) Check the feedback of the seller.
This is important! Please look at the negative feedback and try to determine what the problems were with seller/items before bidding. Make sure you're dealing with a seller that accepts criticism without getting hostile. So called good seller will not attack anyone who is disappointed or frustrated. Don't continue to deal with these sorts of people. Just stop it.
2) Ask questions before you bid!
Email the seller and ask about the item! If you don't get a prompt reply, don't bid! Usually the con artists will ignore your questions & the legit sellers offer real info and are pleasant to deal with. Following are few important questions to ask are:
- Does the item have a serial number?
- Does the seller have manufacturer information/address and phone number
- Is there a warranty and what does it cover?
- How long does it take to return an item if you not satisfied?
3) Research the product.
Lots of notorious sellers claim they have a finely made German or Italian product (or whatever) and in very bold letters advertise the name (such as "We have the BLABLA, folks!" but most of these are fake companies and the names are simply made up and engraved on the no-name instrument. Ask around! Call up a music shop and ask if they've ever heard of the instrument or investigate online with musical organizations and search engines. Avoid anything that you can't get info on. If you do a search on say, Google.com and come up with nothing helpful on your search, chances are..it's a fake instrument. Many musicians have websites and message boards as well. Check them out. Interested in a flute? Look up flutist organizations. There are very large ones online and you can post a message about that particular instrument and ask for comments. You'll get honest info from musicians because many have used several different brands and are familiar with con artists. You can also ask at local high schools. The band teachers are used to dealing with certain instruments. They'll be able to tell you which are good and which are crap. You could have your son/daughter ask if it's appropriate.
4) Lastly, ask yourself some questions.
Is the item is inexpensive, what's your gut feeling on it? Always remember the "rule" of thumb with instruments is.. "you get what you pay for". Fine quality instruments have a hefty price tag. What's it worth to you? Would you be happy with something that will break a year down the road? Will you be able to resell it once you or the student is ready for a more advanced model? Don't rush into anything. These bargain Ebay instruments will be there for a very long time and take a few days' time to find out some answers before you click on the "bid" button. Buying a more well known, used brand is often better than buying an el cheapo questionable one. You can always have an good quality used instrument re-padded, cleaned and repaired for a fairly low cost and you'll have a very good instrument that will last and be a better investment, especially when it comes time for you to re-sell. Hope this helps you! (original text from sarahlovesballet, i just help to sumarize it)
If you're not an expert on musical instruments, try find some one who is, the you will taking a big chance buying on eBay.
