Music Mania and WWW.....

I do not think I need to write much on this. I have forgotten the radio, audio cassttes and also the CDs. Talk about listening to a song and with the innumerable mp3 download sites avaliable on the net, it is just matter of clicking the right site.



It seems that all the songs and music videos we always wanted are available on our fingertips but more often than not the process of hunting down the desired mp3 turns out to be a treachorous task and we end up getting nothing but frustration. There are many sites and even few are providing online streaming..Great..!! Life was never better than this.



Few sites which I like are :

http://www.bollyexpress.com/ it offers all the latest mp3s for Indian movies, Pop and remix albums, Pakistani pop, Gazals and a also has a very interesting legends collection http://www.desiweb.net/Music/default.htm another good site

http://www.indianmelody.com/



And yes not to forget www.bollwoodonline.com and www.raaga.com - has been my frequent visted ones recently.



All these for MP3s...But my connection to the Music+WEB has been since 1995 - 96 when Anurag Shankar (from Indiana University; and I met him recently, wonderfull person really)..has created the itrans based hindi movie lyrics song site. (http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~navin/india/songs/). Anurag says that was a good time and good effort in that era; and it was unique. But now a days with jtrans (java based) many have taken over; with replication of course. This idea cannot be patented, but who knows what it means, Anurag is worthy getting an award (Best Innovator or such kind) for his work. Even though he may not get an award, but as he says people when meet him with the "Oh..!! You are that Anurag!!" is a real life - touching question. Long Live Dear Friend and Long Live your Intelligence....


Believe me - folllwoing a old song with the lyrics from this site and singing along with the singer is the best realxation I get. Try it out....
