Introduction
- MySpace is a virtual treasure trove of music. The site features tunes from just about every genre imaginable, and you can find songs from both mainstream and underground artists alike. Once you are a MySpace member, you can easily browse through music selections and add the ones you enjoy to your profile.
Step 1: Join MySpace
- While you don't always need an account just to listen, creating a profile will enable you to keep track of songs you like, and access more info on your favorite bands. Here's how to get started:
- Go to MySpace.com
- Click on Sign Up in the upper right-hand corner
- Fill out the form
- Click on the Sign Up button under the form
- On the next screen, enter the letters and numbers you see into the text box
- Choose to invite friends from your address book by clicking Find Friends, or click Skip This Step if you don't wish to do this
- Check the email address you used to sign up
- Click on the link in the email (or copy and paste it to your browser) to confirm and be directed to your MySpace home page
Step 2: Find Music
- Now it's time to start looking for some tunes to listen to. First, click on the Music tab above your profile pic. You will be taken to the music site, and you can either search for specific songs you like, or browse through artists and playlists. Click on Featured Bands to check out some of the most popular musicians. To listen to a song, all you need to do is click on the title.
Step 3: Create a Playlist
- You can build a personal playlist of your favorites by following these steps:
- Log into MySpace
- Click on Music above your profile pic
- Click on My Music towards the top of the page
- Click Create Playlist on the left-hand side of the page
- Name your playlist and choose a privacy setting
- Look for songs
- When you see a + sign next to a song you like, click on it to add the song to your playlist
- When you see an a next to a song, click on it to purchase
Conclusion
- MySpace has tons of music to explore, and if you have an account you can save files of songs you like to your very own playlist. Search around the site -- you will find tunes that you may not be able to hear anywhere else. If you find a song that you really love, buy it to help support the band.
