Download and Indian Music
If you have an mp3 player or would like to play hindi
music offline, you need to download hindi mp3 songs from the internet. Its not
fully legal but again the enforcement is not as strict as songs in US.
Most of the Hindi mp3 downloads do not have the right tag information. So after you download the bollywood mp3 , right click on them and edit the title, artist and hindi movie information so that your ipod or mp3 player can list and categorize them right. As hindi mp3 songs are longer than english mp3, file size matters too. You can convert them to wma format to fit in your smaller mp3 player. Saregama HMV, itunes, bollygrounds, rajshri are the few legal sites which allow hindi mp3 download. Some are decently priced and some charge too much. Borrow a friends CD and rip them if you can. Or better buy a Hindi music cd.
Sad but true, there is not a single decent website which allows download of
hindi music ie mp3, possible because its not legal.
