Of course, it largely depends on what you’re looking for. [music.download.com](http://music.download.com/) has lots of free mp3s, but none from any major, established acts. ---

[www.allofmp3.com](http://www.allofmp3.com) is really good and cheap too. It has a lot of movie soundtracks as well as songs. You do have to deal with the fact that it is mostly in Russian(except for the song names which are English for western songs and Russian for Russian ones), but if you do get through the registration process, the songs only cost about 15-20 cents each and you can get them in any format you like with no obnoxious copying restrictions.
