Our should be well known to you at this point if you've been visiting this site for long. It offers 35 free song downloads, yours to keep just for trying the service. But did you know that you can also get a free song every day from eMusic?
eMusic has a very cool new browser toolbar. It’s compatible with , and . One of the features of the toolbar is a link to listen and download a free track every day. eMusic’s editorial staff hand picks the tracks, 365 days a year.
When you click to download, a page will load in your browser where you can read about the artist and album, sample the track, and download it to your computer, yours to keep, for free. You don’t have to be an eMusic member to use the toolbar and enjoy the free downloads (but if you are a member, you’ll want to make sure you are logged in before downloading, so you can take advantage of all of the other features of your account).
eMusic offers more than 6 million tracks across all styles of music and an amazing (and ever increasing) selection of artists ranging from Arcade Fire to Yo Yo Ma. Unlike other services that restrict what you can do with your music, eMusic allows members complete flexibility to burn CDs, transfer to MP3 devices and make multiple copies for personal use. If you do decide to join, eMusic subscription plans are extremely affordable, with per track costs that are a fraction of what you’d pay for music on other major digital music stores.
In addition to the free download-a-day, here are some of the other features of the new eMusic toolbar.
The Free Radio button takes you to an eMusic radio page where you can choose your desired station, and then the toolbar matches the song playing to the eMusic catalog while the station is streaming.

Browse eMusic genres such as alt/punk, blues, classical, electronic, and more.
You can also access popular eMusic features like Best New Albums, Charts and eMusic Dozens right from the toolbar. It even has a set of amusing gadgets, a link to your local weather and other non-music features too.
