Music

Downloading music is an extremely common occurrence in this day and age. My youngest sister is 12 and she knows how to download music (she even showed me how to do it, and I'm only 19!). Because almost every man and his dog knows how to utilise this tool, people (especially the younger generation, who will be growing up with this surrounding them) need to understand that music does have copyright issues, and that we need to abide by these, and to not break the law'.

Having a website such as Incompetech is a great idea, as it gives people an understanding of what music they can download without breaking any rules.

I downloaded a song and it was extremely easy to complete, I had absolutely no problems at all. Knowing that this kind of website is so easily accessible to the majority of people is a great thing. When teaching children about breaking the rules, or even about being safe when using the Internet, using this kind of website would be a great idea to introduce them to copyright laws, etc.

  1. Hi,
    I loved listening to the music available at this site also. It is great to see yet another free tool to be able to capitilise on for our students.
    Cheers,
