iPod Music Downloads - Watch Out For Scam Sites!
By: Davion Wong.
While there seems to be a lot of places which offer iPod music downloads, you need to be careful of bucket shops operating online. Naturally, while most are authentic services, others are pure scams. These scammers are out to take advantage of innocent newbies who are searching for iPod music downloads online. Fortunately, they are fewer than genuine sites.
By now, if you ever used a free iPod music site, you would have known that the last thing to expect from such a site is excellent service. It is rare to see them providing support since it is free. So the next time your computer gets hit by a virus or malware when you download a song, or you realize that the iPod music downloads are of poor unclear acoustics, do not complain.
However, expectations are invariably higher when you pay your hard-earned money, even if it is a few bucks. Membership or subscription sites for unlimited iPod music downloads are supposed to be secure, legal and packed with awesome content and handy features. However, it is not always so, and among paid websites there are plenty of scams as well.
One scam tactic of several sites is to boast of hundreds of millions of iPod music downloads and other media files. But when you want to find out the variety of music genres available, either it is not stated on the website or they remain secretive about it and you simply cannot find anything on it. The truth is when you pay up, you get only a couple thousand songs only.
Several of these sites have been blacklisted for not delivering their promise. Instead of providing you with millions of files to download, you pay $40 for only a few thousand iPod music downloads. And from there, you are left hanging alone.
Others are not the most professional sites I would go for. They provide low quality music and the selection of songs is too limited and genres too narrow. Some simply take your money and run away without giving you any download links. Yet there are a few I tested that are so poorly maintained that they run out of server resources really quick. The worst lot I tried out even charge me for some filesharing software that belongs to freeware. There are many horrible flaws that I do not have time to share.
While these scam sites are a minority, you never know when you meet one. So it pays to do some research and reading up before you sign up with any. Spend an evening reading up independent reviews on membership sites offering iPod music downloads.
