Creating A (Virtual) Independent Bollywood MP3 Download Site

 

My niece beds Indian pictures and Indian film music. To her, every bit to almost of the worldwide, this rich, colorful, crazy and just-plain-fun literary genre is summarized up in one word: Bollywood.





It's a synthy, upbeat track off their upcoming album, The Five Ghosts (out in June), and it'd be a good one to play if you suddenly found yourself flying through the clouds, just cruising around. Very enjoyable.







Pretty Much Amazing rounds up their favorite 40 songs of the year so far, and not only is it a great list, lots of them are free — just click through and look for the "free MP3 download" tag. Enrich your iTunes for the weekend.

I concede that I've get taken with Bollywood every bit happy, though non to the same extent every bit my niece, who has a number of Indian pictures and on a regular basis splits others. The Bollywood well is so shot that I experience to confine myself to finding those hardly a of its products that belch up to view the attention of American movie referees. Otherwise I would be lost in Indian ocean of unfamiliar movie titles, actors and actresses.

 

My niece likewise accumulates CDs of Bollywood medicine. There's an Asian commercialize about her home that proposes a cornucopia of them. Only she has the same problem picking out CDs to buy that I do settling which Bollywood movie may be worth my time. Unless she's seen the film from which a soundtrack derives, she's usually in the dark equally to whether a unique CD's strains and creative people are ones she will enjoy.

 

At her invite, I set up a means for her to preview a sort of Bollywood songs and even to live with them on her iPod for a while, all for Loose. This means she can give informed decisions about which CDs she ultimately purchases.

 

First, I searched for Indian medicine Web sites, and specifically for those devoted to Bollywood, or at least modern popular medicine (every bit opposed, say, to classical Indian ragas). I found several good ones, with names such equally Bollywood world and India FM.

 

nearly of the Web sites I found offered song samples, meaning 30-second or 1-minute snippets. Some had full audio streams that allowed the visitor to listen to continuous Bollywood medicine for every bit long as she or he might want. It was these latter that provided the first half of our solution.

 

Normally, streaming audio, such equally what you hear over an Internet radio post, cannot be saved or downloaded. New software package, though, makes it possible to show the stream to your hard drive for replaying as often equally you like.

 

Even better, some of the newest audio capture software program incorporates something called an mp3 splitter. This software system is able to break the audio stream into separate mp3 song files. By the style, this is utterly legal, because you're simply taping a broadcast, the said as when you read a TV show on your VHS. Voila -- we got the second half of our solution.

 

Between the audio streams and splitter/entering computer software, we produced our own living Bollywood mp3 download sites.

 

Now whenever my niece is in a mode to research the latest tuneful offerings from Bollywood, she flicks on her favorite Indian-medicine Internet radio send, then starts the reading software. Pretty soon she has enough Bollywood mp3s to shuffle over for the rest of the calendar week, and she's almost undertaken to find two or three that will spur her to have a trigger to the CD bin down at the Asian memory.
