How to listen and download songs with GetMP3
GetMP3 is still in beta, so you might come across an error or two when you use it, if you do try to contact the developer with an error report. Next to being a beta, this free music downloader is also a standalone application which doesn’t have to be installed.
To start a song search, enter either a song title or an artist name in the top left input field. Right next to the first input field, there’s another one called More results, where you can also specify a song name like we did on the image above.
Clicking enter will start the search and you should see results in a couple of moments. Next to each song you should see artist name, song title, duration and the most important ones, the Listen and download columns where you can select to either listen or download the song that you’re interested in. Down below you can see that we have one song in the download queue, and next to being downloaded, the song is also being played.
When the download completes, all that’s left for you to do is to simply open up the download directory, which you’ll need to setup when you first start GetMP3, and in there find your song, or songs if you decided to download several. If you want you can even add songs for from several different performers in the download queue, but to do that you’re gonna have to conduct another search.
