Let's get it down !

I know there are tons of list out there giving you site where you can download mp3's. What I don't like about those lists is that they are to long! You will never stick to the all the links they are giving you and most of them are to complex. So this are the ones I use. Simple and absolutely free!


www.skreemr.com - This is my first choice. When I don't find what I need I go to:
www.tagoo.ru - Yes, it's a Russian site but don't despond, it is translated in English and German. An excellent choice too. OK, so I still don't find the song I want! I try lastly:
beemp3.com - Why don't I let the bee's get my music ? If it still didn't fulfill my wishes I use the big machinery (If it is not here It isn't pretty much anywhere on the Internet to find)
www.torrentz.com - I cheated, I know but it seems there's no other way! This will surely get what you desire, be it only one song (you can select what files you want before the torrent starts to download).
Hoped it helped you in your quest !

P.S. Fancy looking mp3 player, isn't it ?

Does music show how smart we are ?


A
cording to a "study"( no scientific one) made by a CalTech grad student named Virgil Griffith regarding music preferences of individuals compared to their SAT scores showed that the "brainiacs" listen to Beethoven while those who barely take the Test prefer listening to Lil Wayne or Beyonce. My personal take on this is that, sure, the quality of the music you listen to gives a hint to what kind of person you are and that people who show greater intelligence tend to listen rather to classical music then any other genre. Because, personally, I can not imagine someone reading Richard Feynman's books to listen to Reggaeton music. Also music, through the lyrics, can have a powerful effect on the psyche, but not far as to dumb people down.

Can one's intelligence be "measured" by the kind of music they listen to ? Can music dull your mind ? Is your favorite band in this chart ? What is your opinion ?
